I don't know why the French youth are rioting about retirement. Shouldn't the first thing they riot about be about getting employed?

Why hire some unknown 22 year old who hasn't worked a day in their life and you can't fire them if they suck when you can hire a 30 year old who has experience and is shown to be a dependable worker?

Getting employment is one of the reasons French youths are rioting. They say making older people work two more years before they can collect their government retirement benefits forces more people to remain in an already overloaded workforce. The youth say this will further contract the number of already scarce job opportunities available to them. With France's onerous laws governing employment that you mentioned the youth may be right.
