We need to put an end to the dogma which defends the idea that ecology can only be achieved at the expense of the economy and vice-versa. They are two sides of the same coin.

Comment
To ensure the sustainability of AHV pensions and address the concerns of future retirees, there are three proposals: - Increase AHV contributions - Reducing pensions - Raising the retirement age in line with life expectancy. The first two solutions are unsustainable, as they reduce household purchasing power. The third proposal is the most appropriate solution to the problems of financing the AHV system.
Afin d’assurer la pérennité de la rente AVS et d’adresser les inquiétudes des futurs retraités, il existe trois propositions : - L’augmentation des cotisations AVS - La diminution des rentes - L’augmentation de l’âge de la retraite en adéquation avec l’espérance de vie Les deux premières solutions ne sont pas soutenables, car elles diminuent le pouvoir d’achat des ménages. La troisième proposition est la plus adéquate pour répondre aux problèmes liés au financement de l’AVS.
