Economically, Valérie Pécresse is starting to have a little idea of what she would like for France.
The President of the Region, now a candidate for the presidential election, gave this Friday, in an interview with Les Échos, the outline of what is similar to a draft program.
To discover
Presidential 2022: where are the candidates in the polls?
Starting from the observation that
"France is in a very fragile situation"
and that it is necessary to
"raise the bar"
, she assures that she wants to implement
"a policy of supply and real upgrading of work",
according to a theme dear to the right. And it puts finally quite conventional reforms on the table - which does not mean that they are easy to do.
She admits,
“we have been promised
certain reforms for
twenty years
. Administrative simplification, for example.
"Denorming must be the priority of the country"
. And this will notably involve the abolition in five years of 10% of the
“administering administration”
, that is to say of the civil servants who manage standards and procedures
“by refocusing the State on its essential functions - to protect, educate , treat ”
.
Regarding the pension reform - which will not fail to be a theme in this campaign to the race for the Elysee - she clearly shows:
"we will have to work progressively until the age of 65"
. It adds to this figure the payment of "
a minimum contribution equal to the net minimum wage in 2030 for those who have contributed their entire life".
And on that of Unemployment Insurance, the elected Ile-de-France believes that it will not be necessary to
"push further the degression"
of allowances with a
"more incentive mechanism to quickly find a job and adaptations for older employees"
.
"I propose to revalue salaries by further reducing charges",
she said again.
And half-open the subject of working time, ensuring that teleworking should make it possible to
"facilitate company-by-company negotiation"
on this subject.
"Drunkenness of the expense"
Because Valérie Pécresse knows that
"the right-wing voters are extremely concerned about the size of the debt, today at 117%"
, she says she wants to resume the path of savings, damaged since the beginning of the crisis with the "Whatever the cost" of Emmanuel Macron. Stopping this "
intoxication of spending
" is the condition, she said, so that France can lose its title of "
world champion of taxes
"
.
On this level, moreover, she announces wanting to create "
a shock of transmission of heritage
», And proposes a system of tax-free donations of up to 100,000 euros from grandparents, parents, uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters, every six years (today, it is every 15 years of parents and grandparents).
Finally, Valérie Pécresse has set herself the goal of a zero carbon France in 2050,
"which requires, alongside renewable energies, to revive the nuclear industry and build six EPRs"
.
And pleads, to help with the ecological transition, for a merger of the Livret A with the Livret développement durable.
