What you are failing to understand is that the Labout proposal of 2% would not have invloved taking money from reserves. It would have ment NOT ADDING any more money to the reserves.

I am sure that you will understand (with your level of education) that there is a difference between not increasing the contribution to reserves and withdrawing money from the reserves.
