| Message | We disagree. Our communities have their own system of saving and forcing them to pay for a pension that they do not need is the best way to harm them. Our citizens are not dumb and we must trust their ability to plan ahead for their old age. |

| Message | The compulsion is to ensure that people who have a lot of money, and who do not really need this kind of pension system, still pay for those who have less. Everybody is free to choose another pension plan besides this |
