| Message | If this is exactly what is going to happen (that they don't get more than the publically pension 'users') then we're against it, as it would be of no use at all. |

| Message | People who participate in the private pension will get more than people who don't. Optional pensions can be defined benefit (like most company plans), defined contribution (like a 401(k)), or a hybrid. The point is that people should have other ways of saving for retirement. |
