The French government has presented a draft budget for social security aimed at reducing the deficit to 12.7 billion euros by 2027 through savings measures affecting retirees, sick leave, and businesses, while allowing the future government the option to amend these measures. (translated)

I just read in detail the 2027 finance bill that was submitted this morning by the Prime Minister ✅ Let's overlook the fact that the proposed savings are clearly insufficient. What I noted regarding taxation: • No general increase in capital taxation • No direct attack concerning the PEA • No change regarding the Exit Tax (and this is what interested me the most) • Reduction of 30% of the exceptional surtax on large companies (positive for the large groups concerned, including several companies in the CAC 40) • No new tax or tightening announced specifically targeting wealth management holdings • Indexation of the income tax scale to inflation • No cuts to the Dutreil pact (business transmission) • No increase in donation/succession rights (but no decrease either) • Several measures favorable to the transmission and productive investment of businesses We will now have to remain vigilant about the modifications that could be made by parliamentarians, But in any case, the Government's proposal remains quite timid regarding tax increases, which is an excellent thing ✅ (translated)

« Le réel nous rattrape »Après avoir promis mi-janvier un budget « offensif », avec un « effort » d'économies massif de 54 milliards d'euros (dont près de 45 milliards portant sur 2027), Sébastien Lecornu a évoqué mercredi un « budget de redressement », tirant la sonnette d'alarme sur la remontée du coût de la dette. #Budget2027 #DettePublique #ÉconomieFrançaise

"Ce n'est pas avec l'épargne des Français qu'on va rembourser la dette publique, c'est avec des économies sur les dépenses""Ce n'est pas avec l'épargne des Français qu'on va rembourser la dette publique, c'est avec des économies sur les dépenses", argumente Gabriel Attal qui, comme plusieurs de ses concurrents de droite comme de gauche, veut davantage orienter l'épargne, souvent "dormante", vers l'économie réelle comme les PME ou la transition écologique. #Épargne #Retraite #Héritage

Le Parlement aura le dernier mot, mais les pistes sont bien sur la table : les retraités pourraient être mis à contribution dans le cadre du budget 2027, que le Premier ministre Sébastien Lecornu a promis « offensif », avec un « effort » d’économies sans précédent de 54 milliards d’euros, présenté ce 1er octobre en conseil des ministres. #Retraites #Budget2027 #Economie

L'article met en lumière la crise de financement de l'économie sociale, soulignant que cette situation menace non seulement les services essentiels qui soutiennent les individus et les communautés, mais aussi l'importance d'un modèle économique qui privilégie l'humain au profit, surtout en période de besoins croissants. #ÉconomieSociale #Solidarité #InnovationSociale
