Rick Scott campainged on a promise not to cut retirement benefits. He clearly stated he only wanted pension plan participants to contribute. Where did the rest of all this #*%@ come from? FRS has been a phemonenal program since 1974 and continues to be so today. No other agency in this state is as fiscally strong and stable as FRS. Mr. Scott is spearheading a dishonest approach to balancing the tax cut created budget defficit on the backs of middle income earners. SHAME ON YOU RICK!

Why is it when the budget needs to be balanced it's always balanced on the backs of the hard working middle class? Why not cut the special projects and pork that the politicians think they have to keep? They are causing the state employees that have given their service to the state to wind up at poverty level.

These criminals want to get to this money. If it is in the stockmarket they can steal it. They see all that money and they want their hands on it. Wall Street wants to play with your pension.

Want the facts go to FRS .com and you will find the pension is not underfunded. Scott wants those tax dollars spent on the state budget.He has not been the one earning that pension or giving his life for it in some cases.Scott after plundering the state and giving tax breaks to the wealthiest and big business will in fact continue his campaign of financial terror on the middle class and poor with added tax to line the pockets of his new empire....Scott has only one solution destroy what Floridians have created for the future.Scott has not and will not consider alternative solutions.

Financial terror is what this middle class worker is feeling. I should be retired but I'm too scared to. Ditto to everything Mark Witt said.

Jerry Ring makes no sense making the employees pay 4, , 5, or 6% all you are doing is shifting where the % comes from instead of the employer paying the 4,5,6 % less and nothing changes now ir the employer continued with the full payment and then had the employees pay 4,5,6% more then it would work this is such a scam....aslo known as a smoke screen
