What if we had a choice which retirement plan we wanted to enroll in? Perhaps some guys in their 20s would much rather have a large B fund with profit sharing over the A-fund we have now? Let those that want to stay on an improved A plan have that option. Maybe give guys some options as one size does not fit all? Something like our medical insurance plans, you pick what works best for you and perhaps have a chance to change from one plan to another every 5 years or so as your situation changes. Just thinking out loud as I've heard from plenty of our young guys who would rather have control of their own money vs. a company promise of a retirement in 35 years.

Personally, I want my 1999 A plan adjusted for present day $$$ and with a COLA going forward to end this constant negotiation struggle going forward. Fix the damn plan once and for all. We've earned it and they CAN afford it!
