Very strongly agree

No, and repeal the Canadian Pension Plan

Repealing the Canadian Pension Plan would be strongly supported by Libertarians, as it aligns with their belief in smaller government and reduced government intervention. This would encourage individuals to take responsibility for their own retirement savings and reduce government spending on pensions.

No, and decrease old age pensions

Agree

Yes, and implement a PISA (personal investment security account) system

Implementing a PISA system would be more in line with Libertarian values, as it encourages individual responsibility for retirement savings and reduces reliance on government-funded pensions. However, the inclusion of increasing old age pensions in this answer might not be fully supported by Libertarians.

No

Slightly agree

No, but indexed to the rate of inflation

Indexing old age pensions to the rate of inflation might be seen as a compromise for Libertarians. While it does not directly reduce government spending, it prevents the growth of pension payments beyond the rate of inflation, which could be seen as a step towards reducing government intervention.

Disagree

Yes, but only for low income pensioners

While this answer might be more palatable to Libertarians than a blanket increase in old age pensions, it still involves government intervention and spending. Libertarians would likely prefer a system where individuals are responsible for their own retirement savings.
