UK universities to consult on changing USS pension benefits

The USS doesn't appear to like scrutiny. The only certainty in their operations is that, despite claiming that they don't have sufficient to meet their obligations to members without making unilateral changes to the contract, they continue to award their own executives substantial bonuses... for what, precisely? Personally, once it has been proven necessary, I wouldn't mind paying a bit more now to have a secure retirement. Some people might prefer otherwise, so perhaps we should be given the choice (as individuals regarding our own pensions, not voting for what the entire organisation does) pay more now for a DB pension in the future, or continue to pay the same for a DC pension.

I'm really struggling to see any good reasons for why busy younger academics should stay in a scheme that is designed to be unfair to them and overly generous to boomers who were pensioned out years ago for underperformance...
