Original Note:
OAS is a non-contributory, tax-funded program financed through general tax revenues rather than through workers’ direct contributions during their working years (contrasted w/ CPP). This is an intergenerational transfer of wealth, where young workers pay wealthy boomers. https://www.canada.ca/en/services/benefits/publicpensions/cpp/old-age-security.html https://www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/editorials/article-old-age-security-costs-more-every-year-the-trudeau-governments-budget/
