Case Quotes
Many New Yorkers, rightly or wrongly, feel that the union's case is not as strong as it might be because they don't have very good pensions themselves. It's not something like the safety issue or the conductor issue or the token clerk issue, where the union has significant common ground with the transit riding public.

Auto Quotes
Whatever the final language, it will be the benchmark of how other negotiations are judged. Since the auto workers won pensions in '48, a lot of things Detroit has done, for good or for bad, has set a pattern. This will be the case, even if the rhetoric of lifetime jobs guarantees outstrip the language.

Declined Quotes
He could have tackled the unfair tax system. He could have made the environment a priority. He could have faced up to the pensions crisis. He could have addressed the problem of personal debt. He has declined to do any of these. This is a legacy from which it will be difficult for him to escape.

Again Quotes
I wouldn't be surprised if the institutions, such as pensions and endowments that have been plowing so much money into emerging-market funds, will see this pull back as an opportunity to plow more in. It doesn't feel like the pull back will continue for too long before investors will again rediscover strong emerging-market growth.

Attracted Quotes
Just yesterday he diverted another $1.1 billion from pensions to pay for his election-year budget. He continues to reward contributors and his lobbyist friends in ways that give Illinois a bad reputation and have attracted the investigations of the U.S. attorney.

Across Quotes
Our labor agreement was one that the membership overwhelmingly ratified, and it turned out to be a pretty decent labor agreement. We gained wages, gained benefits - pensions were status quo - and we redesigned and restructured the workforce to be more efficient, as we have all across the industry.

Ability Quotes
We really need to think about four pillars for retirement. ... The first pillar is Social Security. The second is individual pensions or savings. The third is health insurance, very important. And the fourth, surprisingly, is the continued ability to earn, because many people are going to need to find some way of bringing in earnings after they pass normal retirement age, and we think that that should be more and more emphasized in terms of getting ready for that possibility.

Benefits Quotes
To see poor people, their benefits being cut, to see pensions of Americans who have worked like my father, all their lives, and taken away, to see the rich just accumulating more and more wealth. I mean, it seems to me that there has to be a point where you have to say, 'No, this has to stop.'

Above Quotes
A couple of years ago I would have thought that business investment would grow pretty strongly. That hasn't been the case due to a combination of more regulation and taxes, lower-cost countries and pensions and I don't see that changing. It's certainly hard to see business investment recovering enough to get the economy growing above trend.

Age Quotes
As a pilot, at age 60, no matter what, you're out. Let's be honest, you're qualified to land a jet plane in a snowstorm with an engine on fire and not a lot else. So it's a huge, huge concern. Some people may consider the pensions over generous, but there's a real reason for it because you're out of work.

Breaks Quotes
A major obstacle the carrier must overcome is recruiting and retaining qualified employees. United is understaffed at many locations, and its reputation as an employer who breaks promises, eliminates benefits, forces confrontations and destroys pensions does little to help recruitment.

Below Quotes
Germany has great skill levels, great infrastructure, high-quality plant. If you go to the U.K., we're very creative, and we've got the language, but energy costs are pretty much the most expensive in the Western world; pensions are pretty expensive, and the skills are significantly below those in Germany and the U.S.
