Hey BD, do you get a government funded pension in Britain?
We have to pay into a Social Security fund to get a retirement check
every month. We also can setup a fund for this purpose by paying into it
on our own.
How is retirement setup in Britain?

I don't normally monitor this group, Dave Eagle! You are lucky to catch
me!

Yes, I *DO* get a pension from the UK government - well actually, TWO
pensions! One as an ordinary citizen and another as a 'veteran' (ex-Royal
Navy)

Did you pay into these pensions out of your pocket?

Yes!

Would this be an example of socialism, Dave?
