lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the proposals contained in this report simply relay the retrograde policy pursued by all of the European Union's Member States on pensions. In seeking to increase the effective retirement age, in wishing to extend time at work, in proposing even to replace pay-as-you-go pension schemes with funded pension provision, the rapporteur vindicates and harmonises the attacks on workers. The rapporteur is cynical enough to observe that the increase in the number of pensioners and their increased life expectancy will put considerable pressure on pay-as-you-go pension schemes. Should we therefore wish for lower life expectancy and for a fall in the number of pensioners so as to save money? If the fruits of productivity were distributed differently, with a little less being given to employers and the wealthiest members of society so as to enable workers who have spent their lives making them rich to grow old with dignity, there would be no problem in providing an increasing number of pensioners with a proper pension. However, your economy does not serve to satisfy the needs of a majority as best possible, but to make a minority rich more effectively."@en1
