> wouldn't you characterise any tax scheme as a ponzi scheme? No, not exactly, that's different. > unemployment benefits, healthcare etc? what makes them different from pensions? That's certainly contributions I don't like either, because of how this system is abused. But to be fair, unemployment benefits or healthcare aren't a pyramid scheme, because you aren't paying for the previous "investors" - you might get back what you contributed (with a lots of caveats). In the case of the pension system, you clearly pay the previous "investors". |
