same for the rest of Europe

I have to pay in but will not be able to get a pension

Yeah, SS is going bankrupt too

A state pension that, like all state pensions, was never funded and therefore is paid like a Ponzi scheme

Actually SS was funded

Keyword was

SS? as in the historical peoples of germanic origin?

No

oh social security

sorry

its called national insurance here

Hold on, so why can retirees get fucked but not people who get fired for doing a shit job?

indeed

Well, I think that we need to ease off it

They can't work anymore in many cases. How do you ease off?

If your over a certain age, you keep paying in

@Beemann someone finally pushes the same point I did

If your under you drop it

honestly Codes I used to think the same about welfare. then I got educated on lots of things and it opened my mind

By that guy who, you would only not suck off because you dont want to cheat?

Wait, why should I pay into a system for benefits I will never see? You pay for the current set of retirees, not yourself

about heal insurance, "free" health care, economics, human psychology

Why should I get fucked over by this easing off?

I mean, if you keep paying then its because you are too old to start funding your own retirement

it makes you realise that no matter now nice a policy is it probably wont look anything like the original idea in execution

So you still get benefits

Milton Friedman had a solution here

and will hurt more than it helps

Until everyone is off it or dead

Convert all outstanding social security liabilities to federal bonds.

@Atkins thats actually not a bad idea. i'd be interested to lean a bit on that. it in a book or a lecture?

lean? learn

The other guy people suck off

Eww

>anyone who gets referenced gets sucked off

@Atkins I actually heard that from him too

but it won't happen

we have very different idea of what asucking off means i think

Blowjob
