That appears to be your consistent belief Todgy, but being a little
older than you l believe,nl can remember the mantra being at that
time that the NI deductions from our wage packets was dedicated to
paying for our pensions? There w!ere other dedicated deductions as
well, such as UIF and social club etc,do you remember those days??
when the boss had a social conscience?
Well nobody was supposed to touch those payments, not even
yourself ,untill you retired!!
And if you changed jobs the fund was transferred with you to the
new company !!
WHYwas it changed and who's idea was i t to change??
A perfect self regulating system totally transparent and functioing
effeciently? WHY change it??
Can you explain it to me??
