How does France's effective retirement age compare to other European countries, and what are the broader implications of its low workforce participation rate?

France's retirement system faces a substantial deficit (3.4% of GDP) due to early retirement and low contribution rates (11% of GDP). This necessitates increased taxes and debt to cover the 14.4% of GDP spent on pensions, exceeding the Eurozone average by 2.5 percentage points. Lowering the retirement age would exacerbate this deficit.

Why haven't previous reforms adequately addressed the issues facing the French pension system?
