France’s pension system has a problem in about 20 years, for about 5-10 years. After that blip, there is no funding problem.

Permanently raising the pension age isn’t the only way to solve that temporary problem.

God, if only there was a way of importing workers and not having to rely solely on local birthrates to solve long-term demographics issues.

We could call it... 'shimmigration'.

2 additional years of work isn’t going to fix that nursing home care problem you’re worrying about.
