The Ministry of Finance found a "gold mine": why the automatic transfer of trillions to the PDS is an acceptance of the impotence of the economic bloc. When market incentives do not work, the proven administrative "club" is used. The Ministry of Finance has prepared a bill that will automatically "scan" 6.6 trillion ₽ of Russians' pension savings into the Long-Term Savings Plan (LSP). Let's find out! The ministry got tired of waiting for citizens to voluntarily transfer money to the new device, and solved the problem with one stroke of a pen, transferring money to 36.5 million people without their express consent. From the point of view of the logic of the state, everything is beautiful. But if we say it like it is, the actions of the Ministry of Finance reveal a systemic crisis of trust and clear manipulation. Acknowledgment of the failure of the "voluntary" reform. When they launched the PDS in 2024, officials promised a profitable, flexible and voluntary-only instrument. The result? The program never won mass trust. Instead of changing the conditions, increasing profitability or providing real guarantees, the department simply activates the "automation". This is a clear statement that the Ministry of Finance is unable to attract "long-term money" to the economy using market methods. Liquidity withdrawal is not an alternative. Transferring OPS savings to the PDS system legally changes the status of that money. They are now firmly locked in for 15 years (or until the "old" retirement age). Citizens are actually denied the right to vote. If earlier a person could deliberately remain "quiet" under the expected wing (and, by the way, showed a good return of 18.4% per year in 2026) of VEB, now his funds are forcibly thrown into the furnace of a long-term experiment. Repairing holes at the expense of future pensioners. Why does the country need these 6.6 trillion now? Against the background of the budget deficit, the increased government spending and the exorbitant OFZ rates, the Ministry of Finance is in critical need of a local investor to purchase government bonds for conditional years.
