When money is lost, somebody is going to get shafted. Should it be the state's pensioners? Or should it be uninvolved taxpayers from other states?

As I said earlier, if states get bailed out, then those who create the messes won't even learn anything. They'll have mismanaged their money and not suffered consequences for it. That wouldn't solve anything. It would push problems down the road, make them even worse, cause new problems along the way and be terribly unjust.
