The Guardian view on Macron’s pensions reforms: a potential gift for the radical right | Editorial

The Guardian points out that Macron is making a political choice rather than an economic imperative with making workers work longer for pensions during a cost of living crisis. France's pension advisory council says that the annual 10 billion to 12 billion euro deficit for pensions was manageable in the context of total expenditure of 340 billion euros. It also predicted agradual return to breaking even by the mid 2030's. As much as 80% of people under 65 oppose the reform says the Guardian. Macron has a minority government and won with support from working class parties led by Melenchon, and is in his second term, so it is not clear anymore why he has pursued this course of action.
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
