So the lazy spoiled 68 Generation gets their full pension, while slashing benefits and adding time for the youth.

Sell your soul to socialism for a dime, they will eventually take the dime back, too. They are probably expecting to find new ways to murder the 68 and over so they don't have to deliver that, either.

So importing all these "workers" from all over Africa did nothing to prop up their pension system? I'm shocked, shocked!

France is interesting; I recall riding the metro in Paris in 1974 and they said "Next stop, everyone out."
It was a subway strike.
They evidently have a lot of angst about poor job prospects over there.
The little quaint towns are probably hell to live in for the locals who are scraping by.
Then to make it worse, Brad Pitt comes and buys the château, just to rub it in their faces.
Then, the government lets in a bunch of Africans to suck up social services.

I was visiting Amsterdam in '93. When it was time to get out of town, there was a transit strike. Among tens of thousands of other people, I had to walk through the transit tunnel to GTFO of the city. Fun times - at least my feet were still in good shape back then.

Their 68 generation - the one that hated DeGaulle and protested and let in all the North Africans and were down with all the Leftoidism and had all the great jobs in their peak adult years 70s and 80s and push paper - their Yuppies - voted in Macron because he promised not to meddle in their pensions, by dramatically raising the age for people under 50 to get their pensions.

Meanwhile, the working people are put in satellite city 'suburbs' of massive towers and every new tax has been levied on them in the name of the environment. They cannot afford to live closer to work and wages have been stagnant for 20 years as the taxes and cost of living, esp. housing because of migrants and the jet set pied a tierre crowd taking over every bit of housing in large cities, esp. Paris, from the lower quality to the best quality.

I think cab drivers, ambulance drivers, delivery drivers, auto mechanics, etc have seen their costs in tolls, gas fees, distance to home, mass transit fares, etc. go up dramatically in the 90s and never stop, while their compensation which is regulated by Government, has not moved at all. The reason for the Yellow Vests.

Not much different from here. The Paper Pushing Middle to High level admins and bureaucrats have been getting regular pay increases and doing great, the Working Class has had wage freezes and ever-increasing costs of living. Like our own bureaucratic elite, they're all into Woke and Value signalling. Some French kid was complaining that all his shop teacher did was lecture everybody about how great migrants were and how eventually French society would be run by experts and the ignorance of the Church would end, the Venezuelans and Palestinians would triumph against American Capitalism that oppresses Europe, and everything would be rosy, while the kid just wanted to learn how to work on impellers.

Macron pushed this by some kind of executive order equivalent, as it this Neoliberal dream could never pass in Parliament.

The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money. -- Margaret Thatcher


That's not the problem. France is spending money in all sorts of stupid fucking ways, from importing immigrants that are nothing but a burden, to paying for NATO which they don't need.

I hope they fucking kill Macron. Seriously, behead the mother fucker.

Macron must be beheaded, but not because he's mucking with retirement programs.

Macron must beheaded because he mandated the toxxine for medical workers and no doubt other groups, and set up a toxxine "passport" program.

Those are unforgivable crimes against humanity.

If you hire a thief to steal from others on your behalf, do you really think he never intended to rob you, too, as soon as he got the chance?

My neighbors fat and comfy on California civil service pensions have a sticker by their front door claiming they are 'Proud Democrats'. Proud of what exactly? Being pate geese stuffed with agitprop by subversives and perverts? Going along with the SJW themes because the marching songs are attached to their government checks? Endorsing criminals and deviants because they regard themselves as coastal elite exempts?

Sometimes I think the vaccines in certain groups acted as karma equalizers.

Imagine what's going to happen here when our free money, multi-generational Welfare system suddenly comes to an end.

I remember when I was kid, Liberals here would boast how young Europeans get to retire, and all of the paid vacation they got.
Since the global crash of 2008, they got less paid vacation and other benefits but they also raised the retirement age to just a few years bellow ours.
Now they are coming in line with the rest of the world and they are losing their shit over it.

The European system worked until globalist corruption and mass immigration took a dump on it.
