Washington Post headline, via Thursday’s Boston Globe.

Economic woes may force French to work until 62

Lede:

PARIS — The French government abandoned a sacred totem of its generous welfare system yesterday to combat mounting deficits, saying that workers soon will no longer have the right to retire at age 60 but will have to wait until they are 62.

Seriously? 62?

Lemme rephrase that:

Boo hoo.
