Emmanuel Macron has announced four economic measures. The most striking thing is that the minimum wage will increase by EUR 100 in 2019. Secondly, it will not tax overtime. The third, it has asked employers to pay their workers an extra pay and the fourth, the CSG, a broad social contribution, will not increase for pensioners of EUR 2,000.
The measures are not ensured in order to comply with the requirements of employers. In Macron’s speech, the expression “the national debate” was imposed, emphasizing that “the economic and social situation of the Republic is at a critical time.” The demands of these jackets are considered “legitimate”, but their democratic legitimacy has been questioned by “violence”. "For this reason, the French president sees a need for consensus in order to achieve a "new social pact" among all sectors of society.
However, he announced that he will not touch the Fortune Tax (IDF). At the beginning of his term of office, he lowered the Housing Tax (IFI) and assured that he would not change the tax on the wealth of the rich.
However, he said that his government will fight vigorously against tax evasion so that big business taxes are not made outside France, and that it will closely monitor taxes on Facebook and Google, the GAFA, among other things.
The impact of the new social policies announced by Macron will be measured next weekend. The Yacarés movement has made a regular appeal for the struggle it has been waging for four weeks. It would therefore be the fifth week of protests so far this year. The measures announced by Macron do not seem to have satisfied the Yacarés.
