Oh crap, I completely agree with you.... that's not right....

Why would that help? It's not like you lose your pension plan when moving abroad, you know. The British oldsters will still pick up their slice of money and spend it in Spain instead of the UK, making things even worse.
Wouldn't really make a difference. Millions of our tax money gets wasted on Spain anyway.
