Fire and blood: young protesters out in force | France dispatch

Fresh clashes erupted in France on Tuesday between protesters and police as tens of thousands vented their anger against President Emmanuel Macron's pension reform. The movement presents the worst crisis of his second term.
The day of nationwide protests and strikes called by unions is the tenth since mid-January against the law, which includes raising the retirement age from 62 to 64.
After scenes of high violence last Thursday in Paris and over the weekend, French interior minister Gérald Darmanin warned there could be "fire and blood".
Henry Samuel followed the Parisian march from République de Nation and spoke to young and old alike about what was so awful about working until the age of 64.

[@princeloup5093]

I m French. I already need to work till 70 years. And i worked during all my i studies. And I had some sickeness and unemployement. But I started to work full time at 17 yo. Then i alternate part- time and full time during my studies for 8 years. Mainly full time, just a month a year part-time to be able to pass my exams. I got two masters. Which didn't protect me of unemployment, sickness and misery. All the part-time doesn't count in my retirement pensions. Same goes for unemployed period, sick-leave, parental leave, studies, etc... And that is without the new reform. If it goes on, i'll die at work. And a huge part of low wage worker dies before retirement age. A quart of them. That means that pension of dead low wage worker are financing the pension of superior classes that lives a lot older. And that is the situation before the Macron's reforme that want to add two years, and delete some criteria of hard labor that were before taken in consideration. It s a criminal law that gonna make the citizens die at work. When we are the one paying the most taxes and cotisations in the whole OCDE.

[@ssuwandi3240]
