If you're saying that the savings in health care/other was nearly as large as the actual pensions, I'd like to hear about that. There's not been much real information put forward about the real, final impact on retirees.
Not just "nearly as large," but much larger! The city, by the Freep's estimate, shed about $3.8 billion in health care costs, but only about $1.7 billion in pension costs.
