it is a very serious offense not to pay over pension fund contributions, for which the directors of your husband’s company will be criminally prosecuted. Our law requires that pension fund contributions MUST be paid over the fund within seven days of month end. Of course, it is fraud to withhold this money in the company’s bank account as it – and the investment income thereon – belongs to the employee.

basically you have to give money to government, and they promise to give them back to you if you are lucky to live long enough to qualify for retirement. Less money means you will eat cheaper food and use cheaper health care, so naturally you will die quicker for just the junk food.

That's an appallingly simplistic approach to social politics. If you were in power, I guarantee that the citizens will openly call for your assassination for these policies.

Social Security Payments. For as long as the citizens are entitled to social security, the government is within its mandate to enforce people to save for their retirement. Individuals who are so selfish that they spend all their earnings before retirement then demand a pension during retirement is guaranteed to drain the government much faster than is happening at the moment. This is a social policy designed to protect everyone from individuals who don't save for retirement which is the vast majority of society. If your answer to these people is to say "just let them die", then you will never be in accord with the rest of society, you will never be a politician who has the support of the populace.
