Funded pension - why also for current pensioners?

The Pension Commission believes that a funded pension should become part of it and is proposing an additional 2% levy on wages in the long term to finance this. ​ This should lead to pension levels rising again from 2040. ​ So far so good. ​ But now the kicker. Since future pensioners could expect higher pensions, the state should increase the pension by then. ​ Even for those who have already retired. ​ Can someone please tell me I misread? submitted
