Anti-Pension Cabal? Smells that way
We have noted in past posting on the filing of a public pension initiative that there appeared to be a good deal of “coordination” in the effort, including a Stanford-Hoover MOOC (online course) on personal investments that somehow ends with a session on public pensions. There appeared to be more involved than a few California mayors who are the official face. The fact that UC is swept into the initiative – although it is not a city and has its own set of pension modifications adopted by the Regents in 2010 – seems to be evidence of a larger agenda.
Groups representing public employees have suggested the same:
ALEC and TIAA-CREF Join The Assault On Public Pensions
Now you can say that the article above comes from a “special interest” group. But too many things are happening surrounding the initiative filing to pass a sniff test for coincidence.
