If Mr. Thompson is saying he will manage to somehow not lose 20-30% in the next two years or so i believe instead of running for mayor, he should start a hedge fun with those kinds of expected returns in this climate. Speaking of accountability and transparency is one thing, but making a claim that pensions are unimpaired is doing exactly the opposite - anyone with half a brain can see the state of the markets and the potential impact on NY pension. It would be more sensible to provide a realistic scenario instead of doing the head in the sand dance that everyone in the current administration has been doing for years now. Daniel Ivandjiiski
