To	Debating the Pension System Act
Message	We believe that FCP's notions on freedom work somewhere along the same lines as "we're all equal, but some are just more equal than others".

Message	So, taking away the right to a pension is more free than not?????

Date	22:59:26, May 12, 2006 CET
From	Green Manalishi Party
To	Debating the Pension System Act
Message	FCP: you'll note that everyone in our proposed system has "the right to a pension".

Message	And the current system gives amount "X." If an employer wants to, they can add "Y." You are taking "Y" out and only giving "X." All this does is lower pensions.

From	Green Manalishi Party
To	Debating the Pension System Act
Message	all this does is lower pensions? where did the FCP jump to that conclusion from? As for the "Y" factor, it has already been added through numerous inherent flaws in our social equilibrium.

Message	thanks for the suggestion!

From	Jelbék Zemojad Lofrkad Prta
To	Debating the Pension System Act
Message	The DLP has never before said this, but we agree with the Conservatives! People should be allowed to take out their own pension as well as public pensions, it is just like a savings account, a personal matter.

Message	Err, after a great deal of research, we've changed our minds. So long as the public pensions are big enough.
