Неплохо живут чикагские профсоюзные пенсионеры:

A labor leader in Chicago is expected to receive pension payments of nearly $500,000 a year, while another could get about $438,000 a year.
/.../
The Tribune said the joint investigation with WGN-TV found that Naimoli, president of Cement Workers Local 76, was receiving a city pension of about $158,000 a year. It said his city pension was based on his union salary.
/.../
Naimoli, who retired in 2010 from the $15,000-a-year city job, is also now eligible to receive a pension of about $60,000 a year, the paper said, from the Laborers' Pension Fund for Chicago and Vicinity. He also will become eligible for payments of about $220,000 a year from a third pension, provided by the national union, LIUNA, on his 60th birthday next year. The Tribune said he had not worked his $15,000-a-year job with the city for a quarter of a century.
/.../
Another official, Charles LoVerde III, a former trustee of the city laborers' pension fund, stood to receive three pensions for the same time period totaling nearly $500,000 a year, the investigation found. The Tribune said he took leave of absence in 1998 from a job with the city's water management department, which paid $44,000 a year, to work full time for the local."

Интересно, ребята из OWS будут протестовать против этого? С таким доходом он вполне квалифицируется как top 1%, и, насколько я понимаю, все эти пенсии имеют своим источником деньги налогоплательщиков, пропущенные через профсоюзные кассы.

Там же в Чикаго ещё одна история успеха:

A retired Chicago labor leader secured a $158,000 public pension — roughly five times greater than what a typical retired public-service worker in the Windy City receives — after being rehired for just one day of active duty on the city payroll, local news reports said.
/.../
He now draws the pension while working for a hedge fund, the Tribune reported.

По крайней мере этот профсоюзник уж точно квалифицируется как Wall Street - интересно, внесут ли его ребята из OWS за это в проскрипционные списки?
