| Message | Mariano Lepera, ULD Deputy Leader I would like to ask, why do you want the make the younger people poor? Because this will do exactly that; lowering the retirement age, at the moment in which it is the least popular that it has ever been is nonsense; it isn't good PR, it will hurt the budget, it will ruin the lives of millions of young people. But why do you want to do it? You have run way too deep into your nonsensical ideology. Why do you hate the youth? I don't understand; this will decrease the salaries of, well, everyone. |
