Govenator to Eliminate Benefits for Widows and Children
It must be nice to be so rich that you will never have to worry about your loved ones being left behind. The Governator is lucky that way.
However, he fails to realize that 99.89% of the rest of the population cannot do the same for their families. Not even close. Especially those with hazardous jobs, like say Police and Fire Fighters.
Well, Ahnold the wonder genius wants to eliminate death benefits for spouses and children in the California State Retirement system. It is way to safe money and reform the system. Great. It will go something like this:
Billy: Why do all of us have to live in a one-bedroom apartment, Mommy?
Mom: Well, after your father died in the fire, we can't afford a house any more. So, you have to share a room with your two brothers, now.
Billy: Where will you sleep?
Mom: On the couch, I guess. So, we have to sell some of our things, too.
