Stop all pension cutting State and Federal also SS unless legislators cut their own significantly FIRST

Created by B.S. on December 18, 2014

There is a far reaching aspect of cutting pensions that I think few people are considering. Seniors that have purchasing power from decent middle class pensions are an important consumer base for business in every state. As these seniors leave us there are not going to be enough with purchasing power to replace them, and I am already beginning to see this in my state of Texas in my business. This will restrict business and therefore job growth in the future.
I have said it before, and I will continue to keep saying I strongly support wealth creation, but if we do not want to destroy our future there must be sane and reasonable pay scales that allow the majority of average workers/consumers that are essential to wealth creation to retire with some level of purchasing power.
