Message | Politics is not only about facts, but I can give you our opinion: the BF party thinks a professional retirement age of 70 is too high. We ideally want to lower it to 65, but we fear this lowering would be too big for other parties to accept. A retirement age of 68 doesn't mean that 70-year-old people must stop working. After the age of 68, they don't have to work anymore to draw a pension. Why 65? Because "workforce" is defined as the part of the population aged between 15 and 65 (in this game see p.e. http://80.237.164.51/particracy/main/viewregion.php?regionid=57, but also outside, in the "real" world). In every of Ikradon's regions, employment in this workforce surpasses the 90%-border. |
