Agree

Yes, adjust them yearly for cost of living

Adjusting pension payments for cost of living could be seen as a reasonable compromise for fiscal conservatives, as it helps maintain the purchasing power of pensions without significantly increasing government spending. However, some fiscal conservatives might still argue that this goes against their core principles of limiting government spending and reducing national debt.

Slightly agree

No, they should be reduced

Neutral

Yes, but only for low-income pensioners

Slightly disagree

Yes, for government workers but not for politicians

This answer is somewhat aligned with fiscal conservatism in that it limits government spending by excluding politicians from pension increases. However, it still involves increasing pension payments for other government workers, which might not be fully supported by fiscal conservatives.

Disagree

Yes

Fiscal conservatism generally prioritizes reducing government spending and balancing budgets. Increasing pension payments for all retired government workers would likely increase government spending, which goes against the core principles of fiscal conservatism. However, some fiscal conservatives might support targeted increases for specific groups, such as low-income pensioners.
