Yep, the French strike against the gouvernement's plan to increase the minnimum retirement age from 60 to 62 (!!)
Even A-level students strike against it. As if they cared…
A 57-year old American colleague here told me that he would never work in France, because he would not accept that he has to stop working at 65 …
Another colleagues' father (65) intended to stop working now, but since their home had a costly flooding problem to be repaired, he will be working a couple of years more to pay it off. In France he would have to retire.
A recent book review article in SCIENCE talked about the suggestion that economical crises are caused by people's mood in a periodic manner, as opposed to economics shaping peoples' moods.
Is there a periodicity in French strikes?
