Abstract: This note shows that a public pension system with a fairly general individual tax-benefit linkage is (computationally) equivalent to a system without linkages. The "equivalent" pension system without linkages does not only facilitate simulations of policy experiments, but also offers some insight into the implied tax structure of the tax-benefit linkage.
