5:13 am
the reforms as an assault on the countries welfare system. because i'm a teacher and i think i'm going to be tied to when i'm 64. so i am not sure i'm labeled with children. when i'm sick, one horse only provokes the molecule. we youngsters are not only here for our south . well, and 30 years old, that's what my parents are close to 60, and they would have to work 2 or 3 more years. the pension reform still needs to go through parliament, where micron has lost his absolute majority. so he's hoping to get it past with the support of conservatives. bernard smith, al jazeera paris, and anna elizabeth detach is a political column columnist for the telegraph. she says, reforming the pension system has been a long and protect attracted issue. what they're saying is that the generous french welfare system in that view is being eroded by a slew incremental measures. in the past 25 to 30 years,
5:14 am
i have led to the average pension being a lower than it used to be in absolute terms. this is perfectly true this, this reform is one of several reforms that was won by allergy pay in 1095. that was when, by nicholas of course he was there was one under elsewhere at all. every president looks at the, at the pension reform and sees that we have an unsustainable problem. we have a pay as you go system, which means that people who are at work pay for people who have already retired. it's not like attention bought. and in 1946, when this was created, you had 8 people working to pay for the pension of one pensioner that has change. we now have something like 2 people pay for $1.00 pension or which of course, nissan, sustainable. but only other hand, the feeling among the workers in france and, and the unions is that this reform is essentially a pushing people to work longer when they will not find jobs. because in france,
5:15 am
unemployment problems. and we've had a structural employment unit between 8 and 10 percent. and also because french employers, 5 people off to 50 anyway. so what they say is, we are causing people to have a worse life, with no jobs available for them not to retire from the white house. as the u. s. congress will come together and work to avoid a debt default of the country hit. it's $31.00 trillion dollar borrowing limit on 1st i or concerns a political showdown could unsettled markets and trigger recession. alam fisher reports from washington, d. c. the treasury department warned weeks ago that there was going to be the possibility they would have to take extraordinary measures if the country run up against this debt limit. and that's exactly what's happened in the last couple of hours. us treasury secretary, janet yellen has written to kevin mccarthy, the leader of the house, and also senior figures on capitol hill saying that she's going to start those

5:17 am
or with the world economy as well, back in 2011, when republicans and then president barack obama couldn't come to an agreement. the us lost its top credit rating for the 1st time ever, and there was a tremor through the world economy that something that joe biden is keen to avoid, particularly given that the economy seems to be recovering from high inflation and high gas prices. and also things are becoming slightly easier for many families and america. so it's going to be a very interesting 2 or 3 months as the u. s. comes up against this debt limit, not on the verge of defaulting. no, but certainly the issue is there and it's got to be dealt with quickly. still a had allowed 0. ok, so alec baldwin is to face charges over a fatal shooting on a film says in 2021. and several of india's top wrestlers. go on, strike after accusing coaches of sexual assault. ah
