We're not all going to agree. I rarely have my family of four in agreement on much of anything.
I said thank goodness because I don't favor a rushed agreement. Plenty of people would benefit from a quick deal. I don't begrudge them and don't expect them to agree with me. If you see that as FU, you must love today's society focusing increasingly on division.
So.... now this is math in public. 425 +525 = 950. Pretty close to 1000. That's just mandatory retirements over the next 2 years. per YOUR numbers. First of all, I'm not advocating rushing a deal, but time is not as on our side as you seem to think. It is if you are under 60 years old (I am), but those over that age have a very loud clock ticking. And yeah, what you are saying to them is FU.
And what is it exactly that you don't begrudge them?
