    Because he has pensions? The entire point of pensions are to give working-class people the kind of income Tom Walz has right now. I’m going to vote for the candidates fighting for union rights and against the candidates who think employees who try to organize should be fired.

        Ok doomer. My wife and I are both solidly millennials who bought a house in the 2010s for $230K then refinanced in 2021 at the lowest interest rate, so we have a very affordable payment.

        Um, no. Want a pension? Go work the jobs Tim did - generally federal workers, teachers railroad workers, postal employees, state employees, etc. have pensions and/or annuity plans.
