State Worker Pensions

Headlines that report local pensions are failing and states cannot cover the cost of government worker pensions. Its so common. Pension funds like individual fund investment go through Wall St. But which Wall St.? There are actually 2 Wall Sts. One for the wealthy and one for your pension fund. The wealthy have insured they control the Wall St. that insures they reap millions and sometimes billions. We are told, the game is rigged, for our own benefit, because "they" are the job creators. Try asking them to hire you. http://money.cnn.com/2014/03/30/investing/michael-lewis-flash-boys/index.html
