(ANSA) - ROME, OCTOBER 27 - "Pensions are not a luxury, they are a right. Can 41 years of work be enough to lose enough? Can you discuss this?" This was stated by the national secretary of the Italian Left Nicola Fratoianni.
"And then there is another problem that the trade unions have recalled in recent days - continues the exponent of the right-wing opposition - speaking of guarantee pensions: the integral contribution mechanism in a few years will make the discussion on the retirement age completely obsolete. , because if there is no immediate remedy to this perverse mechanism, we will have today's young people who will retire at 75 starvation pensions ".
"The government proposal made to the trade unions - concludesFratoianni - has nothing to do with a reform of our country's pension system, it is not effective. When you announce a reform but you don't put in resources, in reality they are essentially cuts."
While this reform is needed and the government must give some answers.
And the only answer that is not acceptable is to continue to tell Italians that retirement is a luxury they cannot afford, because this is unfair and offensive for those who have worked a lifetime ". (ANSA).
