You are unemployed and angry at people who allegedly make 200k a year that you are paying for.  I can see why you would be so upset.  Of course a number of posters on here have challenged you to put your money where your mouth is but to date you have done nothing.  That's why WE are upset.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Perhaps Dr. Crimefighter PhD (&lt;a href="http://www.getadegreelikesurfpuppy.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="www.getadegreelikesurfpuppy.com"&gt;www.getadegreelikesurfpuppy...&lt;/a&gt;) can help.  First of all, stop using your lunatic math and use some real numbers.  Then, follow through and pin on a reserve officer badge and show everyone how the job is done.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Of course we already know you can’t but the entertainment value would be incredible to see you try.  And please, before you start up with claims that you can’t get hired because you aren’t related to anyone on the department, remember, I have already offered to vouch that you are my inbred cousin from the Appalachia’s.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">SDCrimefighter</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 21 Mar 2009 14:40:42 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Police union flier's plan has roots  elsewhere</title><link>(u'http://www3.signonsandiego.com/stories/2009/mar/21/1m21flier233946-police-union-fliers-plan-has-roots/',%207401767L)#comment-7401767</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Because there are no such things as criminals right? &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">SDCrimefighter</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 21 Mar 2009 14:41:27 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Police union flier's plan has roots  elsewhere</title><link>(u'http://www3.signonsandiego.com/stories/2009/mar/21/1m21flier233946-police-union-fliers-plan-has-roots/',%207401803L)#comment-7401803</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Cute dog icon, same old tired, non factual, ugly posts....&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">SDCrimefighter</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 21 Mar 2009 14:43:46 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Police union flier's plan has roots  elsewhere</title><link>(u'http://www3.signonsandiego.com/stories/2009/mar/21/1m21flier233946-police-union-fliers-plan-has-roots/',%207408316L)#comment-7408316</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Military workfare???

All pension increases were approved in open sessions of the city council.  There were reaffirmed by a public reading of a salary ordinance.  Agendas of which are posted online before each meeting.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2.  Other than you and Mike Aguirre, no one else has agreed the pensions are illegal.

The city also has one of the lowest crime rates for a major city in the US.  What does that say?  Should that translate into one of the highest paid?  Apparently not if you go by the commentary here.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Annually (when compared to other American police agencies) SDPD has some of the lowest amounts paid out to settle excessive force lawsuits.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Do these two fact mean they are perfect?  No, but if that's your indicator, then it’s pretty darn good.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As far as police work not being dangerous, the stats you posted are for people actually killed.  Can you name any other profession where you would be expected to go into an active shooter scene?  Using your criteria that would mean as long as you don’t get killed then its not dangerous right?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When you make your claim, how do you reconcile the fact many cops are shot but don’t die because they are saved by their body armor?

But here is essentially what he does to get the numbers he claims.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you own a home pull out your loan documents.  See where it says purchase price?  For the sake of this lesson, let’s say that number is $450,000.  Let’s also say your interest rate is 7.0% fixed for a 30 year loan with zero down.  That makes your monthly payment approximately 2993.00 per month.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now move over to the pay off amount at the bottom of the form.  This is where you see how much you will have paid if you make 360 equal payments over the life of the loan.  The number should be $1,077,480.  Not only has home has immediately more than doubled in value before you make the first payment, you are now a millionaire.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sickpuppy basically makes the assumption that everyone will work a full 30 years to reach the 3%@50 rule.  That simply isn’t the case.  Some people retire at less – some don’t even reach retirement at all due to death, resignation, termination, etc.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Next, sickpuppy assumes everyone will live another 30 plus years to collect that 90%.  Now using those assumptions, what he does is takes both of those numbers, adjusts for inflation and then combines them into the here and now.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What's funny is that if he did his own finances the way he does his math on here, he would be doing time for fraud.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">SDCrimefighter</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 28 Mar 2009 12:46:39 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Escondido police union sues to gain arbitration</title><link>(u'http://www3.signonsandiego.com/stories/2009/mar/27/bn27police175419/',%207585428L)#comment-7585428</link><description>&lt;p&gt;All public pensions are formulated on the base salary, not add ons.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Are you also suggesting that police and fire pensions to also include family health coverage?  The military does that now.  Under the best case scenario, only the pensioner is covered for police and FF’s.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Here’s another difference.  If someone went into the military at 17, they could retire at 50% at the age of 37.  There’s no way a cop or firefighter could do either.  The earliest they could retire would be at age 50.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">SDCrimefighter</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 28 Mar 2009 12:54:33 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
