YES IT IS OUR MONEY The government has already stolen so much of it from us ...it is supposed to be in a safe account for us.
@B2BMK7B1mo1MO
Yes, & index benefits of low & middle-income retirees to inflation, while slowing growth for high-income recipients.
@B293PLF1mo1MO
Abolish most taxes and increase old age pension for those that choose to continue working if it doesn't effect their ability to work.
@9TCSCPH5mos5MO
Yes but depending on how much they contributed to society to the best of thier abilities. Eg. someone who CHOOSE to work in a low-paying job and retires from it (if they didnt have a choice its ok) shouldnt get as much as someone who spent thier live advancing human beings in thier strongest field. To summarize The amount they get should be increased depending on the rule of equivelant exchange
@9S3NX6K6mos6MO
If it's done right the issue is most people don't see a dime of their pension cause by the time they are old enough to claim it it has been spent
@9RZPX676mos6MO
if people payed 40-50+ years of taxes, they deserve to be taken care of very comfortably in their old age
