Is it tyranny that my 84 year old parents get free food (via the state pension)?

Did they earn the pension by working for many years?

  • Do you think they should be left to starve if they did not work for many years?

    In most developed countries even someone who has been never worked in their life will get enough to live on (although they might get less than someone who has worked all their lives).
