When is going to be an upgrade in all pensioner wages?
There has been not a single upgrade in pension wages for a long time, and prices are going up and up and, I can tell you, is getting very hard for us to keep on living the way we are. Can you please look up into this PLEASE,because $500 cash every 10 years is not going to solve anything. THANK YOU.-
No matter where you live I wouldn’t hold my breath for any increases. The problem is that the population is getting older. More people over the age of 50 than under the age of 50. So more of us are looking at retirement and each year the contributions get smaller and smaller while the demand for benefits gets bigger and bigger. If anything I think pensions will decrease. Most of us are not prepared for retirement at all even in our fifties so we will all be looking to our Governments to supplement our incomes. We will be working more years before we can retire if ever and many are seeking to rejoin the workforce after only 5 years into retirement because they just can’t make ends meet.
Sorry champ unless you are an old age pensioner (who I believe has earnt their pension) or someone with a serious disability (wheelchair bound, etc) frankly go out and work if you want more money!
Dont get me wrong i am will ing to support those who cant support themselves in fact i would give aged penioners a raise to 30 odd thousand a year if i was pm, the way i figure they have earnt it paid their taxes and worked to make our country great why not reward them and look after them in their older years.
Ditto with serious disabilities- they need care and should be afforded it by our government.
The rest however can get no increase sorry i dont care what else it is, go work for your money like the rest of us!
Anyone who wants to complain about this view of mine only has to look at the fact there are seriously disabled people working for a living at the endevour society and likewise, if they have the drive and ability to hold down a full time job why cant those with lesser afflictions?
Anyway champ if you are one of those in the categories i mentioned regards aged or disability wise, good luck and hope it comes through soon, if not get off your butt and get a job that can suppliment your welfare check!
