| Democratic Group | 47 | No | Take the 64 year old worker, who has toiled and toiled for years to make money for his family. Suddenly, he discovers that he must work not one more year, but six, in order to be able to enjoy old age. Are the economic benefits of this policy really worth complete ignorance of the elderly? It is truly worrying to think of a world where people are forced to work until 70. Charlemont has resolutely done the same, and their right-wing government has been ousted. If that is not an indication of what happens when a government prioritises minimal economic gain over the welfare of the people, nothing will be. |
