⚡️🇫🇷 NEW - Retirees in France now have higher incomes than workers
This isn’t a stable political equilibrium:
“Not only do French pensioners receive larger cheques from the government than their counterparts anywhere else in the west, they start getting them several years earlier.
The result is a situation in which over-65s now have higher average incomes than the working age population — unique both internationally and in France’s own history.”
