Thought Secure, Pooled Pensions Teeter and Fall

By MARY WILLIAMS WALSH

The economic downturn hurt multiemployer plans, and their insurer is nearly broke. Some of the pensions are rescinding workers’ benefits to stay solvent. 

Kleptocracy.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kleptocracy

Kleptocracy, alternatively cleptocracy or kleptarchy, (from Greek: κλέπτης - kleptēs, "thief"^[1] and κράτος - kratos, "power, rule",^[2] hence "rule by thieves") is a form of political and government corruption where the government exists to increase the personal wealth and political power of its officials and the ruling class at the expense of the wider population, often with pretense of honest service. This type of government corruption is often achieved by the embezzlement of state funds.
