    Where are the geniuses who told us that siphoning money from public infrastructure to benefit foreign pension funds was a good thing?

      One of the things I really hate about the whole situation, is that the pension funds are trotted out as a puppy.
      “But if you default this company, then all these people will lose money on their pensions.”
      Says the fund who bought into a water supply company and then (I assume) said nothing when plans for huge dividends based on loading it up with debt were announced.
