          So the increase is because of inflation right? Raising rates for workers so pensioners get a cost of living adjustment?

          The alternative would be, what I can only imagine to be, dubious taxation.

          Interesting, are those pensions going to old people regardless of accumulated wealth or is it just keeping poor old people out of poverty? If it’s the latter then I’m not sure it’s a thing to be mad about, if it’s the former then I’m interested in your ideas and would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

            Regardless. Some of them are are already filthy rich, have multiple houses, etc. They don’t really need the money. Sure there are people who legitimately need it, but there should be an income limit to it IMHO. It gets raised almost every year. I consider it a pyramid scam.
