| Message | We were gonna to propose this. Why if I'm still working at my age, then everyone else can too. |

| Message | By age 60, most, if not all, have already been working for 30 years. We think that after 30 years, one should be able to spend time with their family. We could support, however, as medical advancement has made it possible to be able to work pass 60. |

| Message | Er, retirement age is only the age at which you can recieve your pension, not the age at which you have to retire. Duh. |
| Date | 19:13:10, July 07, 2010 CET | From | Union Socialism Alliance | To | Debating the Retirement Age Increase |
| Message | Yes, but would someone want to retire at 60 if, for 5 years, he won't receive an income? |

| Message | OOC: sorry, misread your comment, it was directed at the MMP, was it not? |
| Date | 16:55:10, July 08, 2010 CET | From | Art & Labour | To | Debating the Retirement Age Increase |
| Message | Yeah. Also, it means that the individual recieves both state pension and existing income, thereby increasing their overall wealth whilst they remain in work and indeed after work since much would become savings. |
