Most people on the state pension now didn't earn enough to save for a pension. And they didn't think they'd have to because they paid their tax and National Insurance. I think it's kind of hard-hearted to say ******* 'em, they should have sorted themselves out and they're expensive to keep. People arrive in this country every day and have access to benefits of all kinds without ever paying a penny into the system. It's a big no-no to say anything about that because you're deemed as being a racist. Some people go for years without working and live quite comfortably off the system, but if anyone criticises them there's a while litany of excuses why their benefits shouldn't be touched. So who is fair game for criticism? Oh yeah, the generation of people who've worked their whole life and paid into the system, and who are now seen as a burden. This country could learn a lot from other cultures who take care of, and respect their elderly. If you want to see how much respect this country has for its elderly, take a look at the care system.
