Would you pay more taxes if it meant receiving a pension when you retire?

Yes, the state should guarantee a pension for its citizens.

Yes, but a mixed model would be more efficient (50% state + 50% private pension plan, for example).

17%
No, the state does not have to manage my money; I prefer to have it myself and opt, for example, for a private pension plan.

No, there's no way I can accept that :boon:. I can't even accept the PS3 being retro :lol:

I think it's time to change the poll, right? Here you have the results of the previous one.

Since there are many conspiracy places and it's very unlikely to know all of them, we'll simplify the question... Do you believe in any conspiracy theories? If so, which one/s? :bad:

I hope I was joking when I said I believed this pseudohistorical bullshit, but I know fuck well I wasn’t.

Somehow I think this will get an overwhelming response of yes's and maybe one no. :oops2:

Epstein didn't off himself. Trump is a con man and tariffs are only for insider trading. I'm inclined to believe in the supernatural, despite constantly debunking every single supernatural footage on the internet. Same with aliens, I want to believe.

You know posting with different accounts, unless there's a justified reason, isn't allowed, right?

For real? Back in the day it surely wasn't. How am I supposed to traffic my Tings offshore now?

Bank accounts are allowed, some of you have one and we respect that. However, creating another account and posting with both of them, pretending to be another person, that's definitely another thing.

Would just occasionally posting on an alt be against the rules?
