They have washed their hands of us-just as the Union has. As far as I'm concerned (and I hate bail outs as much as the next guy ) I truly feel that because the US Government made themselves the official watchdog overseer of Central States in the early 80's when they came down hard on the Teamsters for their investments that they should shoulder the majority of the blame for the financial trouble Central States got themselves into.  They should bail out the FEW old farts who will still be alive in 8 or 9 years when the plan goes tits up and we are pushing 80 and unemployable. It was the Governments responsibility to over see the plan and they blew it.</blockquote>
