Pension Tsunami's Jack Dean on the Growing Wave of Public Pension Debt
At his website PensionTsunami, Jack
Dean and his staff chronicle the ever-growing wave of public
pension debt. "The whole idea of the pension was to provide public
servants with a decent retirement," says Dean. "It wasn't to make
them wealthy, to allow them to retire younger and with more money
and be able to go off and play golf while the rest of us supported
them."
Reason.tv's Ted Balaker spoke with Dean about a fiscal mess so
large that even prominent liberals like former California Assembly
Speaker Willie Brown are sounding the alarm.
Interview shot by Alex Manning and Paul Detrick. Edited by Manning.
