The next time someone tells you that "we don't have money for pensions", remember this report about the tax of the elite:
"Wealth inequality is evident worldwide, including in #Europe. As of early 2025, the wealthiest 5% of the population in the eurozone controlled 45% of net household wealth, while the top 10% held 57.4%, according to the European Central Bank (#ECB).
This concentration of wealth keeps the debate over wealth taxes at the centre of discussions in many countries. Most recently, French billionaire Bernard Arnault strongly opposed a proposed 2% levy on citizens with assets over €100 million, calling it “an offensive that is deadly for our economy”.
Over the past three decades, several countries have repealed individual wealth taxes. The number of #OECD members levying such taxes fell from 12 in 1990 to just 4 in 2017. They are European countries: #Austria (1994), #Denmark (1997), #Germany (1997), the #Netherlands (2001), #Finland, #Iceland, and #Luxembourg (all in 2006), and #Sweden (2007)."

Nouveaux feux cyclistes
En France, les cyclistes n’ont que des petits panneaux incompréhensibles pour passer au rouge. On appelle ça des “M12” que même certains cyclistes ne connaissent pas.
Au Luxembourg, où ils ont un peu plus d’argent, ils offrent d’emblée un feu dédié aux cyclistes. Dans la vidéo je vous explique pourquoi c’est important.
