The president
Russian Federation
V. Putin

Many Russians are in favor of abolishing pensions. Here are the arguments:
http://zhanna1984.livejournal.com/12973.html
The need to reform the Russian pension system is recognized by any sane person. But there is no consensus on how to carry out this reform, neither among citizens, nor in the Government, and even more so in the Russian Pension Fund itself, which is torn apart by contradictory leaders and their actions.
Let's look at how things are now with pensions, the population and the prospects for providing this same population with those same pensions and finally understand that there is a way out of the current difficult situation of the deficit of the Russian Pension Fund

And so what we have.

Currently, the old-age labor pension in Russia consists of three parts: basic (guaranteed by the state, and its size is established by law in the form of a fixed amount), insurance (differentiated part, depends on the results of the work of a particular person) and funded (formed only for citizens 1967 year of birth and younger). The average size of the old-age labor pension at the end of 2008 was 4 thousand 902 rubles.

The population of Russia is 142.0 million people.

The number of pensioners is 38.5 million people.

The economically active population is 75 million people (52.8% of the total population). But the population aged 20 to 64 years is about 90 million people.

Every year the population decreases by 500 thousand people.

The average amount of accrued monthly pensions is 99% of the minimum subsistence level.

45.7% of the population with an average per capita income of over 10 thousand rubles per month.

The number of participants in non-state pension funds i.e. those who transfer money there are 6.5 million people (8.6% of the economically active population), and only 685 thousand people or 1.8% of all pensioners in Russia receive pensions from non-state pension funds.

On the prospects of pension reform, in her recent speech, Minister of Health and Social Development Tatyana Golikova said that from 2015, the size of the basic component of the insurance part of the old-age pension will depend on the length of the insurance period. And it can be reduced by 3 percent for each year short of the standard length of service of 30 years. Or increase by 6 percent for each year exceeding the “norm”.

Thus, it is clear that each of us must work for at least 30 years in order to receive a pension without discounts equal to the cost of living. I don’t think any sane person would be satisfied with this state of affairs. But only 8.6% of us today are concerned about our pension future, and the rest, in the old fashioned way, hope for the Russian “maybe” or for the State that “always owes everyone.”

Meanwhile, next year the federal budget must transfer over 1 trillion rubles to the Pension Fund to pay the basic part of the pension to close the growing budget deficit of the Pension Fund, which next year must pay pensioners 3 trillion rubles. In 2010 - 3.7 trillion, and in 2011 - already 4.3 trillion rubles.

It is necessary to reverse the threatening trend of growing deficit of Pension Fund funds. So it turns out that the only way to ensure a decent old age for those who still have the standard 30 years to work is to completely abolish state pensions. With the 65-year retirement threshold, which we will soon reach, the population under 35 years of age should be completely deprived of state pensions and, accordingly, take care of their own future. Thus, all PFR funds should be distributed among current pensioners, and replenished by those who are over 35 years old and under 65 years old, which is 56 million people. Simple calculations show that with the annual death rate of the country's population at 2.4 million people and with an average of 1.8 million people retiring annually, in the coming years there will be a surplus in the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation and budget funds may not be spent on patching pension holes, and, for example, to improve the level of education and medical care of the population. By adopting such amendments to pension legislation in the near future, the State will solve a lot of problems not only with pension provision, but also with the development of the internal Russian investment climate, will receive serious long-term investors in the country's economy and will significantly increase the financial literacy of the population.
