en) Libertarian alternative - Pensions: we go for a ride!

The government's plan for a new pension reform was announced on August 27 evening. Moreau 
from the recommendations of the report, it is in line with previous liberal reforms (2003, 
2010): the project is still to increase the contribution period gradually (up to 43 years) 
and to pay the workers and workers further . The result, in a context of high unemployment 
and increasing insecurity , it will be down because of pensions. ---- The government hopes 
to achieve a smooth transition reform. He has promised some " counterparties" taking into 
account the strain at work , very limited increase of the lowest pensions and increase the 
contribution period "only" from 2020 ... These counterparties have already convinced the 
CFDT (which is , admittedly , not very difficult to convince ... ) but they are nothing 
compared to the destruction of the pension system continues .

On the other hand the government is promising new tax breaks to employers , which does not 
prevent them, by the voice of MEDEF, to complain that the reform does not go far enough 
and that the "cost of labor" chokes wealth creation by "entrepreneurs" . Yet the problem 
is not the cost of labor , but the cost of capital, which depletes an ever greater share 
of the wealth produced on the backs of those who toil .

September 10 held a first day of action at the call of four unions ( Solidarity , FSU , FO 
and CGT). The success of the day depends on the consequences of a possible move . It is 
all of us , workers , workers, students, unemployed , precarious , with our unions and 
organizations struggle to mobilize us to not miss this appointment . Libertarian 
alternative will be there !
