Ireland, Hungary expropriate pension funds

The idea of putting one's savings into officially-sanctioned pension funds receives another serious setback when EU member states (or better their ineffective politicians) think that the only way they can save themselves from further fiscal and economic disasters of their making is the expropriation of pension funds that to all intents and purposes have been created to provide their beneficiaries with benefits during their years of retirement. Where are the regulators that are so busy sticking their noses into every aspect of our daily lives? Where is justice and democracy?
