obvious pandering to the 'partner'  who is now the finance minister - the less the gov't needs to pay out the better - screw the folks who paid into it 
bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush  - all this propaganda to defer gov't  payouts is a desperate attempt to keep $ in gov't hands to pay for shiny pony's obscene deficit budgets - shame, shame, shame 
when will folks wake up to this obvious fraud?
