    European countries are not imitatng the Anglo model but the Scandinavian model. It’s like high return retirement savings combined with social equalisers

      I really hope you don’t let them imitate it, cause this didn’t happen by accident over here. There’s a lot of money to be made by the finance sector if people are forced to put their pensions into the capital markets. And this isn’t me just babbling from the other side of the Atlantic in abstract. I hold an EU passport and I sincerely hope shit doesn’t turn like it did here.
