Jersey's Ministers have dismissed calls to stop taxing people on their pensions.
A petition, which has more than 2,000 signatures, argues that people have already been taxed on their earnings, so should not have to pay more.
In response, Ministers say that only half of Jersey pensioners pay tax anyway - and it is only pensioners with other income who have to pay.
They say Jersey follows the same system as the UK and other places - and they have no intention of changing it.

States' response to nurses' concerns a 'slap in the face'
BBC Radio Guernsey
The Royal College of Nursing (RCN) says it lacks confidence in the States of Guernsey because deputies haven't followed up on a series of recommendations made in an independent review last year.
The RCN is looking for a pay rise to bring them in line with others in the health sector as well as improvements to terms and conditions.
Senior regional officer for the RCN, Julie Lewers, has called the delayed response in sorting negotiations by the States "a slap in the face".

BBCCopyright: BBC

Deputy Peter Ferbrache, seconded by Deputy Charles Parkinson, has placed the amendment which looks to investigate moving some operations from St Peter Port to St Sampsons and use inert waste for developments in that area instead.
The President of Guernsey's States Trading and Supervisory Board, Deputy Ferbrache, says he thinks there's a better way forward.

Deputy wants more hotels for Jersey visitors
BBC Radio Jersey
A Jersey deputy wants the States to build a hotel on the Southill site in St Helier.
Deputy Mike Higgins, who also organises the Jersey International Air Display, is concerned about finding somewhere for visiting pilots and crew to stay because hotels are already booked up - and thinks there aren't enough hotels in the island.
He's planning to ask the States to make it a designated tourist site.
BBCCopyright: BBC
But Keith Beecham, CEO of Visit Jersey, says the island should be focusing on bringing tourists to the island outside the summer months - rather than building more hotels.
"We've got about 11,000 beds in Jersey and in the summer months, those beds are pretty full," he said.
"Outside of the summer months, into October and November all the way to March and April, we've got plenty of beds available in the island.
"I think our challenge is making Jersey an attractive destination throughout the whole 12 months of the year."
