By properly taxing companies and rich individuals? Besides, those leaving to 120 would most likely be among the richest of us. Do they really need a pension at all?

It should be though, we need to demand change rather than just saying “oh they’ll never do it” and giving up.

Sorry, but if one can dream of properly taxing companies and rich individuals, there’s plenty of other shit to fix with that money first.

Making living until 120 sustainable is not on the list, or very, very low on it.
