Pussies.
Sounds like they've really mucked services up there over it, with only 25 to 30 percent efficiency!
In many European country's they keep trying to push the retirement age up and up in the hope people die before the governments need to start to pay. In Europe the massive amount of imports, people with low IQ but have lots of low IQ children is stressing the system to breaking point, so massive changes in health care and retirement are been put into place so the imports can be paid for.
Im with the French, fight back and make sure your own people are protected
In the US, the retirement age has been pushed up to a minimum of 67. That's because Congress has been steadily raiding the Social Security fund - a blatantly illegal move, but they make the laws, so they can ignore them with impunity - for the past several decades to pay for utterly unrelated stuff. So, now that an American gets to retirement age, the funds he or she has paid into it for his or her entire life are just not there... and they've pushed the retirement age steadily upward in hopes that we will die off and not collect what we paid to begin with.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
