| Message | We agree - state pensions are a part of what makes up the centarl welfare state mechanism. It is unnecessary and diminishes the responsibility of the individual to manage his own affairs. Surely it is not the federal government's place to be providing pensions for people as if they cannot take that initiative on their own. |
