Reply to comment by mowotlarx in 250K NYC retirees must switch to new Medicare coverage after union leaders favor Aetna plan by exgalactic

I love social security and Medicare. Why would I want to stop those Benifits. I don't think NYC needs to supplement those Benifits for people who retired from working for the city long ago. I would rather NYC use that money to fix the subway system or make the parks nicer.

NYC employees are paying into their pension and for those benefits. It's not a free gift from taxpayers (which city workers also are - tax payers).
