igor said:I believe, people still own their retirement funds, so where is the seizure? Social Security Administration in the States is a US government agency. Does it steal pension money from poor Americans?
tangobob said:Some realism is needed here. In Great? Britain pension schemes have been destroyed, in the name of free enterprise.
Most final salary schemes are now closed, and the the UK government steals billions each year from those that are left.
I think you will find that as most schemes ( US and UK ) hold their savings in equities, and that the collapse of stock prices will mean all of us (who are still investing in pension schemes) are going to be worse off.
