Reply to comment by Kooky_Deal9566 in Pension for Baltimore City council members by 2468975
Actually not true, because they could run for other positions in city government. Also, ANDDDDD?? Let's be honest here, they didn't EARN one after 12 years either! What other organization/company gives a pension after 8 OR 12 years? I have to be at my job 10 years to be "vested" but I actually need like 25+ years of service to meet the full requirements. Baltimore City government is like a parasitic monarch, it's totally self serving to those in charge. As if 70k/year isn't compensation enough.....half of the members miss half the meetings anyways, even fail to vote on key issues being discussed

They can’t run for any other position though. It only 8 years total for all government positions.
Also your job sucks. Don’t make other people have worse positions in life because your job sucks.

No, it's not. One could be on city council 2 terms, city council president 2 terms, then mayor 2 terms. Name one company that gives pensions after 8 years or troll somewhere else.

You’re correct about per government position. Though I still think this law is bullshit. Also I’m not a troll because I fucking live here. I’m a concern citizen and know that term limit is bs for legislators.
There’s a lot of problems with Baltimore politics and this isn’t going to fix anything.
