France on the brink of economic collapse | Nina dos Santos

According to the media, please tell me which country’s economy is not actually collapsing right now.

[@Clem_Fandango11]

Allowing people to have a large state pension at 60 is bonkers an unsustainable. Greece had it at 55 and that ended well.

[@jb-zr4ez]

The retirement age in France is 62 and going up to 64. I don't think the State pension is that large. My neighbour has worked all her life and is retiring on a state pension of less than €10000 a year. You have to have worked 43 years to qualify for a full pension. In the UK it's 35 years.

Only cos you've been conditioned to shovel trillions into the stock market.

@@jimbobla Russia is only growing its military industry, at the cost everything else, throwing in state funds collected over two decades of fossile fuel sales. Disregarding tariffs and everything outside of Russia and Ukraine, anyone who thinks what a economy needs is for investments to be transferred from education, healthcare, commodity extraction and consumer durables to making bullets needs their brain replaced. Let alone having its workforce hallowed out by loss of all the soldiers going of to fight (though their pay is a major contributor to total GDP and inflation growth), Russia is estimated to have double the casualties of the Afghan War, and something like 6% of total Soviet military losses during WW2. Coupled with the demographics profile already being wacked prior to the war, Russia has sunk its own economy for a generation or two.

This is a nonsense title. France is not "on the brink of collapse" , or anywhere near. It's much more like Italy in 2018, and nowhere near the situation of Greece some twelve years back (Greece: which is now looking increasingly healthy). Please get some persepective. France is a very rich country and is able to pay its debts: very unlike the position that Greece was in. This is why you are seeing nothing like the spikes in yields that Greece saw, or the contagion that accompanied it.
