Sure, and that is the reason politicians are afraid to go near Social Security and Medicare. Look at the stories being written about SS simply because there will be no cost of living increase next year as a result of the government saying their has been no inflation. Another example would be the treatment Bush's SS reform plan received and continues to receive.

What a horrendous state of affairs this is. After this change the average French citizen will only have 29.5 years to enjoy their state funded retirement instead of the current 31.5 years. Goddamn the French government for being unable to pay for more than three decades of "decent retirement".
