United Airlines has no right to cancel the company retirement plans. Such plans are part of "agreed-to" negotiations between the company and personnel. The retirement payments were agreed to as part of the employee's pay! The employees gave up part of their pay to be put aside for retirement. The money is not a gift from the company. The company has absolutely no right to it.

Re: "Earned pension," William Nash, June 12. Mr. Nash seems to have forgotten the times we're living in. Of course, United Airlines is entitled to steal the workers' pensions. After all, isn't it the president who is stealing our Social Security, and our Treasury, and our children's futures? Stealing it with his tax cuts to the rich, and the need to finance his obscene war in Iraq.
Why, if it's good enough for the president, it should be good enough for corporations. Start collecting dog food recipes, and deal with it.
