Two things must be distinguished here. My personal opinion and what the French think in this poll relayed by France Info.
My personal opinion is that it’s enough to see millions of people doing nothing and constantly asking for more effort from the same people who have to constantly pay more taxes but also work longer while millions don’t care. nothing.
Don’t talk to me about the disabled. They work in ESAT! In this country we have overused the notion of legitimate, humanistic and necessary help (we can all fall or be sick) to enter the most abject of economically deleterious assistantships. So much for my opinion. She is clear. Trench. Clean. Without ambiguity.
Now, if my opinion can be ignored, the government and politicians of all persuasions had better listen to the annoyance of the population in general and of the executives in particular of this country who are not, strictly speaking, trade unionists of the first hour!
“According to a survey that franceinfo reveals to you this Monday, a majority of executives want to retire at 60. And a good proportion of them are ready to demonstrate and go on strike for this.
56% of executives want a pension reform that allows them to leave at 60, taking into account years of study. This desire is particularly marked among seniors.
According to Sophie Binet, Deputy Secretary General of the CGT executives, this population no longer feels welcome in the company, lucid about the place given to them. Even if there is no physical arduousness, there is, according to Sophie Binet, a mental wear and tear that makes you want to move on from the age of sixty.
This is the second surprise of this annual barometer: nearly one in two executives – 48% exactly – say they are ready to demonstrate to defend their retirement and 42% could go on strike. Among the claims, apart from the retirement age, there is the level of pensions. 82% of executives want to receive a pension at least equal to 75% of their end-of-career salary. While, according to Sophie Binet, private executives today receive 67% of their last salary and according to an Agirc-Arco forecast, in forty years, they could only receive 51% of their salary..
You have here a major sociological and societal change that no one sees happening or coming.
So I’m going to free some of them in the Palaces.
People have just had enough.
And when the state of nervousness is high, comes violent irritation.
But let the government be reassured.
Let him not be worried.
The executives and the people who work in this country are rather nice people and respectful of order.
There will be no violence.
Everyone will just stop working.
And when those who run this country will simply do like all the lazy people in this country, that is to say hang out at the expense of others, Bruno the Mayor will be able to watch his tax revenues collapse and Macron the country sink.
They haven’t understood it yet, but the big strike has already begun and France will collapse in on itself… like the former USSR.
