| Message | We prefer a public pension to a private one, but we also prefer a private one to no pension. We think, that the existing retirement age is fine. |

| Message | So the Marxists support forcing the people of Cildania to pay a private company whatever it so feels inclined to charge for its Pension programmes? Not to given the the choice to choose between a number of competing pension companies which while still not what we would desire is by far the lesser of two evils. While we have come to expect the Socialist to run their back on democracy it is a rare surprise to see them rally in defense of what can only be described as a Capitalist Monopoly, and one dictatorial forced at that. -Sir Alexander Gabriel CC |

| Message | The law doesn´t say, that you are forced to choose a particular pension company, but you must choose one of the many pension companies, that exist in Cildania. If you want to have public pensions, then we would support it! |
