    Right. But, if we are discussing how things *should* be, is it not better than to fix the real problems?

    If anything, you actually made my point stronger. The powers that be put you in a situation where you cannot take care for yourself. This means you become very dependent on them. In such a world, a good pension becomes highly valued. Then it will be cut...

    The real problem is not the pension though, it is companies not valuing their employees.

    I do not have much advice for you. When I felt there was no future in my field in my country, I simply left. It was not perfect (I lost my pension), but I still think it was the best decision. It may not work for everybody though.
