What are the proposed reforms?
In France it is a pay-as-you-go system: the active pay the pensions of retirees, there is inter-generational solidarity. In the private sector, your retirement is calculated over the best 25 years, and in the public sector the last 6 months.

Macron wants a big bang, passing pension plan in point based, that is to say that your retirement will be calculated on the number of points that you will have accumulated throughout your career, which will mechanically lower the level of retirees especially for those who have unstable jobs if you get sick, unemployed...
This point will fluctuate and decide by the governor, if tomorrow there is a crisis and that he decides to lower the indicide it will be unfair for the one who worked all his life, and who overnight will be told " sorry guys the point has lost value so you will get less than you expected.

This uncertainty will push the French workers (finally those who have the means) to turn to pension funds and private insurance, excluded for the moment from this market but who will be the big winners of this reform (the media revealed the collusions of this gourvernment and BlackRock where there were several secret meetings, moreover the person in charge of this reform had to resign because he had "forgotten " oops to say that he continued to receive a salary for his work as an insurance lobbyist)

Basically public train employees still get a coal bonus negotiated some 100 years ago, when was the last time you saw coal operated train
There are several special regimes (42) to take into account the arduousness and specificity of certain professions: metro drivers, soldiers, building workers, aircraft pilots ... Macron had sworn to suppress them, the police threatened to strike, the next day the government declared that it would not touch this regime. It's like during the yellow vests manifestation, there are freezes of salaries in the public service, the only profession which has benefited from an increase is not the hospital staff, nor the school teachers but the police because this government is only held by the police.

France in 2020, this Macron is the most filthy president. It has been over a year that the country has been under tension with the yellow vests and movement against pension reform, its only response is violence and repression to maintain himself.
And after that scumbag will give lessons to countries on human rights.


I know! We should bomb them to save them from the tyranny and to bring democracy and peace.

Again today in Lyon, someone films the demonstration from her apartment, and a CRS (Republican Security Companies) targets intentionally her with a grenade launcher. They have carte blanche, completely out of control.

Why doesn't Mayor Pete resonate with black voters? Is it the wine cave or policies?

When Bernie wins the primary I hope he picks Yang as his running mate.
