Chris Scott, a retired member of Teamsters Local 41 in Kansas City, made his point in frustration at a US Treasury event to air complaints about proposed cuts to pensions from the Central States Pension Fund. The fund is grossly underfunded and cuts are the fund's idea to rescue the fund. The Treasury appointed a special master Kenneth Feinberg, who was in Kansas City at Bartle Hall to listen to the union members.
