We hear plenty of pension reform, and it is usually to prepare for a longer contribution period, an increase in employee contributions or lower pension.
Or three ... Why
Should it be so? If one believes the media, much of the union (!) And the political right, including the PS, sadly unanimous on the subject, it would be because of the lengthening of life expectancy, lower the number of contributors and the increasing number of retirees.
Strangely, no one makes the link with the declines of the same charge that gives employers the right for 40 years.
Instead, we are told that funding for the current level of benefits is no longer assured.
The question is simple: how is it possible then that France has not experienced a recession over a year during the past 20 years (but where is the crisis, anyway?)? Should we not ask the politicians (especially those who claim the left) if they really intend to do (or have done) so that the share of GDP devoted to pensions decreases ?
Yes, because that's the reality: GDP increases (the famous growth), so if you want to spend less on pensions, we want to devote a smaller share of GDP. In other words: devote a smaller share of the wealth that our country produces each year to our alumni!
In the pocket of that will go the difference of wealth ? I have my own idea ...
And you?
