      I would like to sympathize with the protesters. But raising the retirement age from 62 to 64 seems just so reasonable, especially in international comparison… I can’t see how this is affordable to keep it so low.

      What is the over/under for the number of French PMs between now and 2027? I’m gonna go with 3.5

      Yikes. Entire country set up in a way such that young people will transfer their money to the old, so they can retire 2 years faster. Youth defending this is literally cosplaying chickens for KFC.

      Another example of kicking the can down the road. But not to worry, I’m sure the problem of unsustainable debt will have disappeared by 2027 and definitely won’t have gotten worse.

      They didn’t suspend the reform, they just postponed the backlash until after the election.

      Probably required to have any succes with budget or vote of no confidence.

      So Macron’s touted pension reforms could turn out to be a big nothing ?

      They are dropping the hot potato to the next one. I dont blame them, when Macron tried it everyone rioted. Let’s see how it will sound when Lepen does it.

      Kicking the can down the road. Good luck trying to lower pensions in the future when 30+% of the electorate are pensionists.

      I guess the French economy will be back to square one of falling into irrelevance and under investment. At least it gives other EU members an opportunity to take business and private sector jobs for themselves.

      And the youth is stupid enough to be with the extreme left, ignoring that THEY will pay for this

      For us French, the vast majority of us believe that it is absolutely shameful to raise the retirement age. We find it inhuman and immoral. 62 years old is perfect. Heck even at 60 years old a majority of people would agree.

      And yet you still have people on here crying that Northern Europeans are sceptics of subsidizing French pensions with joint debt. We can do that when your population gain familiarity with the concept of fiscal responsibility.

      So, maybe it wasn’t That crucial, uh?

      What a joke. 200bn/year lost in tax loopholes and fiscal evasions, but yapping around a 30bn budget, mostly affecting the modest classes, already struggling. Pathetic.

      Don’t know much beyond the basics of French politics but this sounds to me like they want to force Le Pen’s party deal with that and the consequent turmoil when they reach power in two years.

      In a sense, I’d say „well played“.

      Keeping in mind it is a country with the highest birthrate in Europe. Insane.

      I would love to support the French left, but I can’t help but see their demands being completely unreasonable when the proposed reform will still mean that France has the lowest minimum retirement age in Europe.

      I am a massive believer in the welfare state but it needs to be sustainable for future generations.
