We have almost 500 workers at the MTA who earn over $100,000 year and who doubled their salary through overtime.

We have almost 250 LIRR workers (car repairmen, etc.)who earned $230,00 – $280,000 per year through overtime. Their pensions will be based on that salary.

We have MTA unions who recieved a 10% raise over three years – in a declining economy where the private sector is cutting positions and wages.

What is going up?

Public Union salaries and benefits.

Taxes and fees – every immaginable type!

Could it be that the salaries, beneits and pensions of Public sector (UNION) workers are unsustainable?

Oh, and the pansions of retired NYS and NYC workers are NYS and NYC tax free.

Except for LIRR, where 90% of retirees go out on disability and pay ZERO federal, NYS and NYC taxes.

Nice to have a $280,000 tax free pension.

That is where our money is going!
