Eh, I'm not sure it is. Our politicians don't get paid all that much, really. State workers like myself who make far less than $100k, which is the vast majority of us, would also likely be on board. Like others said, once you make a certain amount, it becomes far easier to save for requirement on your income, and state workers like myself are well aware of the PERS shortfall that needs to be patched up due to overly generous Tier 1 benefits that the Boomers gave themselves.
