Yes the concept of this was correct. The problem was it was raided when it suited the government/IMF - which I do understand. BUT when it was raided in an emergency, focus should be on returning the money to it when times recovered. The issue is still there is a massive future pension obligation that needs to be addressed. Putting our collective heads in the sand, and constantly raising the state pension is only compounding the issue.
I don't want my children burdened any more than they already are. We need to stop deferring liabilities to them and paying for ourselves in the current time.
