Arise, children of the Fatherland
Our day of glory has arrived Against us the bloody flag of tyranny is raised; the bloody flag is raised. Do you hear, in the countryside The roar of those ferocious soldiers? They’re coming right into your arms To cut the throats of your sons, your comrades! To arms, citizens! Form your battalions Let’s march, let’s march That their impure blood Should water our fields |

They always go all out on their protests, as the only war the French can win unaided is a civil war.

I presume because they are not driven into an early grave by working so long

Yes but you will now have to collect the full 45 years (or what ever it is) of working to be able to claim, so if you went to university you now aren’t retiring until 69/70 in France

Macron is pushing to raise the retirement age from 62 to 64. The bill would also require 43 years of work to be eligible to receive a full pension at 64, otherwise individuals would have to wait until they are 67.
Polling shows the majority of French people oppose Macron's plan, which raises the age when workers start collecting a government pension by two years. The retirement age moves from 62 to 64 for most workers, and from 57 to 59 for garbage collectors. The new conditions would apply to those born in or after 1968. However, workers born in 1961, who were supposed to retire this year, would have to work three extra months.

well i would easily make the protests stop
protest goers: booooooo no rise of retirement age to 63 me: can always go more up to 68, so do you want to keep complaining protest goers: don't make them go up at all me: ok i count to 3, either 63 or 68, you decide protest goers: but me: no buts, make a choice or we make a choice for you protest goers: we'll stop and accept that at 63

it's not just the fact he wants to raise the retirement age, it's that he bypassed democracy to achieve it, by not allowing a vote in parliament. We all know what the french did last time they felt they were not being heard
