I also agree that the bifurcated system is unfair. I don't even know the reason for it. My guess is, it has something to do with newly hired officers being included in the Social Security system, and paying their half of the taxes from their date of hire forward. But that's only a guess.
Anyway, I am all for doing away with the two-tier system and including everyone in the prehistoric version that most of my cohort are under. But I don't think we retirees have any say in the matter, since we have no bargaining capability.
Happy Christmas and Merry New Year to you, Denny, and to all the dinosaurs who read this message board.
