12/29/2004: Opinion: Companies or Taxpayers Will Foot the Bill for Broken Pension Promises (Rocky Mountain News)
Excerpt: "Somebody's got to pay to save the U.S. pension system. Perhaps the companies that have promised retirement payments for their employees will come up with the cash, and the stock market will zoom, and a gap estimated at $450 billion will close. Perhaps deeply troubled companies such as United Airlines will honor their pension plans instead of forcing obligations on the national Pension Benefit Guaranty Corp."
