I’m a federal worker in large part because of the pension. If they cut it out of nowhere, my retirement planning and saving strategy over the last 15 years would be shot to hell. You can’t do that to people. I imagine we’d strike if they cut our pension benefits.

I don't know how to break it to you, but an increasing number of Americans funding your pension and Social Security will have NEITHER available for them when they retire.
They don't give a fuck if yours is cut.
I fully expect to spend my retirement years living in a homeless shelter. If I'm lucky.
The number of Americans who struggle to obtain food and housing is on the rise, and the fastest growing demographic of homeless is senior citizens, many of whom get only Social Security.
You'll be lucky to get a portion of your pension and other retirement benefits.
