MessagePRP, we sort of like the idea of this bill. We think people should be able to retire younger.

But right now we've a voluntary public pension system, and a reasonably generous welfare system. The practical effect of that is to discourage people from saving for retirement at all. Why bother saving for retirement, when you can collect welfare when you retire?

We'd vote for this bill, but we'd need to see:

1) An addendum to this bill making the public pension system mandatory, and

2) A committment by your party to increase funding for health and social services by 5 billion dollars.

MessageWhat are insult to those who are older but able bodied. Telling a 60-year old today he/she should retire! C'mon our citizens are living, on average, to roughly 80. That's 20 years between "retirement" and death. C'mon.

MessageThey can work past that age if they wanted to. This is just lowing the age at which they start recieving benefits for a job well done.

Random fact: When your party holds the foreign affairs department, you can create new treaties. However, before writing anything new, it is a good idea to search for existing treaties which already accomplish what you desire.
