Pensions and the Coldness of Mathematics

This opinion article analyzes the Portuguese contributory pension system, arguing for a clear separation between this system and social assistance. The author contends that those who contributed little should not receive the same as those who paid in for decades, except for elderly people who genuinely could not contribute due to a poorer and more informal Portugal. It identifies four problems with equalizing pensions: contributory justice, incentive distortion, budgetary costs, and loss of system credibility. It concludes that the State should protect those who could not contribute, but that those who could and chose not to contribute must accept the consequences of that choice, criticizing the political temptation to raise all pensions without distinguishing between solidarity and blind distribution.
