Sure sounds good but we paid for the previous generation and never complained, now your generation wants to opt out? In most traditional societies it's a given that the older generation is cared for when they need help. It's usually on a more personal basis but with our mobile society and the break down of families, this is the best that can be done. More power to you if you can arrange your finances so that you won't need the Old Age Pension, but don't complain about your generation having to pay for it.
