Do We Keep Pushing or Wait?
As you know, CORRE has been pushing hard for a pension adjustment from the pension fund surplus. As you might imagine, the surplus has mostly disappeared due to the financial "crisis".
So, do you think CORRE should just relax and wait for the stock market to recover and the surplus to build up again? Or, should CORRE keep pushing for the adjustment?
In my mind, we need the adjustment even more now. Using the surplus would have been an easy way for DOE to fund the adjustment. But the presence or absence of the surplus does not absolve DOE of its responsibilities.
Let me know what you think!
