“Absurd that politicians may retire early”
“Debater: We members of parliament must live as we learn”
“This is an opinion piece. It is the writer who stands for the views that are put forward in the text, not Against.”
“the DEBATE. As we get older it is reasonable that we are higher up in age. Therefore, it was decided recently on the increase in the retirement age. “
“But this does not apply to mps, who can retire earlier. It is completely unreasonable. Riksdagsledamöternas ”pensionsgräddfil” must be scrapped.”
“According to the researchers, is estimated to every newborn in Sweden today to be over 100 years. It is an amazing development. But if we are to be able to afford pensions, but to send the bill to our children and grandchildren, have more opportunity to work longer. “
“Therefore, the retirement ages to be raised in the coming years. The minimum age for withdrawal of public pension will be raised from 61 to 63 and the right to retain their employment will be raised from 67 to 69 years.”
“Sweden has no longer the age of 65 who fixed the age of retirement, without the retirement age looks in the reality different for different individuals. For anyone who is taking sabbatical and read several years at the universities and begin to work in connection with the 30th anniversary, it is reasonable that you are expected to work after 67. But for those who start work the day after the student is the ability to retire earlier is considerably bigger. “
“But the principle is the same for all – the more you work, the higher the pension.”
“as we live longer, it is for many to stay in work longer. Pensionsmyndighetens calculations show that the 80-talister that I myself need to work to around 69 years to get the same levels as previous generations. This means a working life of between 45 and 50 years.”
“But for the members of parliament do not apply to this. Members ‘ private occupational pension schemes said that the full pension earned in 30 years and that the pension can be taken out from 61 years of age. “
“the Rules are justified on the basis that the pension should be in line with what a government official with the same income may retire after 42 years of work. With the difference that ”In the members ‘ pension scheme to such a pension level could be reached after a 30-year term of office”. “
“It means, in reality, a person will in parliament at 30 and has left his mission to the 60th anniversary since the can retire.”
“It is completely unreasonable. Decision-makers must live as they preach. How can I, as an elected representative with the credibility to be able to argue for higher retirement ages when I as an mp can expect to retire much earlier than many others?”
“the Question must be viewed in light of the fact that we in recent times have highlighted how the elected officials have other conditions than ordinary wage earners. An example is the phenomenon of mps who take ”time-out” from its mission, while at the same time receive remuneration. But there is no other in the labour market that can go up to the boss, to request time-out for an indefinite period of time and at the same time keep the salary.”
“Policy is a förtroendebransch. When can’t members of parliament have pension terms that are completely different than what the case is for other on the labour market. It is time to ditch riksdagsledamöternas sour cream with occupational pensions. “
