Always the insurance was a “hot potato” in the hands of the…
various governments after the dictatorship, which they avoided like the plague, to deal seriously with the issue, as a result, and the necessary bold decisions, by shifting over time the problem in the “next”…
While everyone grew up in a completely chaotic way the black hole, putting a hand in one way or another in the reserves of the funds… it Sounds beautiful in the ears of many Greeks, to say I will not cut pensions, but the issue is much more dangerous than it looks… Besides, it is known that there is no saliva in the funds, while at the same time the situation of the labour market in the country, necessarily lead to very painful situations in the near future…
In my opinion, in 10 years from now will be phased out completely by the pensions!!! Not only because there will be no money for pensions… after all money is not there even today… The sad thing is that there will be no workers to pay the pensions of future pensioners…
The substance of the insurance “reform” refers to a specific generation… The so-called generation of the Polytechnic university… Those who have benefited from the party after the dictatorship as workers and today you have the luck to get a – even – truncated pension…
Who’s going to retire after 10, 20 or 30 years, it is obvious that they can’t hope for anything… Because they simply will not get a pension…
On the substance of the new insurance, trying to pass the government’s “separate” and a burden for the new generations of members, rescuing (such as… rescues) existing.
The logic that if they hit each other and other existing pensions will not move at all, the market can be irrational, but in essence it describes exactly the modern economic reality of Greece…
It is true that of the already retired people living whole families! For this reason, I avoid tampering and other pensioners because, quite simply, will FALL the whole of the country! Families of the unemployed or υποαπασχολοÏμενων cope thanks to the retirement of the father or of the mother. Sad, but completely real…
And because the known νεοφιλελÎδες, speak of the reform grandeur of the memorandum, let’s see how contributed to the μνημονιακÎÏ‚ policies in the definitive burial of their insurance system of our country…
According to the official data in the years of the memoranda of the funds had losses of revenue:
By Unemployment that has reached 26%, around 5 billion €/year… Of elastic or part-time Employment of around 2 billion €/year. From the black and uninsured labor of around 8,5 billion €/year. The reduction in wages which on average exceeds 30% of around 6,6 billion €/year. From the reduction in employer contributions of around 1.8 billion €/year. By removing cc. resources of around 1.3 billion €/year. From the reduction of state funding of around €2,5 billion/year, and by the locks of self-employed, around 1.7 billion €/year!!! The total amount of the losses closing accumulated the 29,4 billion €/year when the total pension expense amounted to 27,7 billion €/year!!!
If to all this we add that from 1999 until today lost 76 billion € (Exchange, duty evasion, PSI, Uncollected OAEE, Uncollected IKA), are you aware of for what reason we are where we are!!! And for all this not to blame either the early retirement pensions, nor, of course, the high pensions of some funds, of which the reserves harnessed by the state and made gambling…
