Re: 3rd Pillar Pension Fund

Recipients of unemployed benefits are treated like employees contributing to a pension plan, i.e. 6.5k max.
Except that when you're receiving unemployment benefits you are not making any contributions to the 2nd Pillar. I find this quite strange since it contradicts the "30k limit for the 3rd pillar is for [self employed] people who don't [can't] pay into the 2nd pillar" argument.
