That is a different problem and is the one that should be addressed, not
providing early retirement for teachers.

So, what are you saying, Matt? That an actuarial system should be
devised that allows every 55 year old to be able to retire with full
pension? Or only teachers?

IMHO, the former is impossible, while the latter is unfair and silly.
