I read this and TOTALLY agree that this needs to be reversed. ALL political governments have got it wrong.




No one has been able to explain to me why young men and women serve in the Canadian or U.S. Military for 20 years, risking their lives protecting freedom, and only get 50% of their pay on retirement. While Politicians hold their political positions in the safe confines of the capital, protected by these same men and women, and receive full-pay retirement after serving one term. It just does not make any sense.

If each person who receives this will forward it on to 20 people, in three days, most people in Canada and United States will have the message. This is one proposal that really should be passed around.

I passed it on, will you?

"If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice," and these brave soldiers have given you that right!! Absolutely!

I don't think anybody should get 100% of their pay as their pension, but if I had to choose between vets and politicians, our vets definitely deserve it more. I think all government positions should receive whatever the standard pension is in the private sector. I work for a multi-billion dollar company and my company pension will be 65% at the age of 62 with 35 years service. Thank god for Canada pension and Ontario benefits.
