I don't have anywhere near enough information on these various proposals so I am not committed to any of them. I do know that my tax bill when I retire will not be significantly less than it is now, so adding to my current tax bill might not be the best plan for me. What I hope the MEC comes up with are options and not an all or nothing plan that incorporates either all of us or none of us. That would truly suck.
