Message: [QUOTE="Cuse_MN, post: 437443, member: 1559"] Speaking of benefits, its sickening the fraud that many public service employees perpetuate by racking up overtime in the few years before retirement. Sure, technically maybe its not fraud, but its a joke to think someone can get paid more in retirement _ some of who become eligible in their 40s - than what they made for the vast majority of their careers. These fraudulent payments come via taxes paid on a state or local level mostly from citizens in the private sector who don't even have pension/defined benefit plans, let alone lifetime healthcare benefits. There should be outrage at some of these antics, especially from the anti-tax crowd, but who is going to rally against cops and firefighters. [/QUOTE]
