Here is what I say to people who want to blame TRS for the state's woes or want to change TRS. "So. What you are really saying is that teachers have been OVERPAID for the past 30 years because if you want to reduce or change pensions you are basically reducing the PAY for teachers who have dedicated 30+ years to serving the public." The response is usually, "No. I didn't mean that." - But, yea, they really did. Bob Morse wrote: > Did you read the article about the Illinois Pensions?
