Typical evasive answer from the resident moron.... :roll :roll
Why are you not debating Juliar...why raise the issue with me....
Or better still, why don't you address some of the topics I mentioned
in my responses to the opening post....there are several..
It is somewhat amusing that you seize upon the word "stolen" from the OP,
then, even though others respond, you select me to communicate with.
Even more amusing that you don't even address the overall topic of superannuation
in general....
Could it be because its the Labor government of Victoria that's supporting the rise to 15%
And you say youre not a troll...…
Why don't you just fuck off brian…..

I am trying to fathom your thinking, Billy. It is obvious you don't like the idea that I am attempting to take you (semi) seriously for some reason. Perhaps it is that you have no depth to your complaints, just whinges? :roll

OK, it appears that you are not worth bothering with Billy. Not at all. :roll :roll

He has a valid point, Brian. If you want to argue with him use the points that HE has made rather than something someone else has said.

The unions want 20% Super so they can pilfer the super money to stop them going bankrupt as they have no members anymore.

And the Super Funds want 30% so they can extract bigger and better fees and waste the worker's money with bad investments.

And the worker just wants the money he worked for.

I have been opposed to compulsory super since day 1.
Everyone says "started 1993" .... well those of us in metals industries copped it since 1989.
I've always said "It's a scam" ... and "Government sanctioned theft"

Originally super was an insurance industry product (didn't know Keating was creating a revenue stream for unions) and I said to the STA rep (absorbed by Superannuation Australia) "If banks and building societies can go under, and they do (Tricontinental ect) then finance and insurance companies can too". HIH proved me right.

One main problem is these companies think it's their money, and so it becomes necessary to run a scam to get your own money.
I know, I've had to do it twice. And they keep changing the rules.

If compulsory super was any good the rules would remain static and the spool about being eligible to retire at 55 wouldn't have been shredded.

When a candidate or party comes out with an electoral platform stating they will abolish the compulsory aspect of super, they'll get my vote.
If Donald Trump is so close to the Ruskis, why couldn't he get Vladimir Putin to put novichok in Xi Jjinping's lipstick?
