A few weeks ago my father inlaw says, "Be really careful with the gas, there is a scheduled strike so gas may be low...." Not really knowing the extent of this until my mother inlaw says, "Jean-Mark (father inlaw) is working from home this week to save gas and to monitor our usage.... " Considering he is a very careful man, I still didn't thing too much about it....
Next day, watching the news. It looks like a crazy zombie movie where the army is spraying the people in the streets with water to keep them back because they are going completely mad!! I mean, burning fire in the streets, jumping on random cars and smashing in the windows! MAD!!! And its not even like old people, its mostly young! For what you ask??? Social Security!!
Apparently the government here is trying to raise the retirement age to 65. So far they are standing their ground but I was told that the people will stay on strike until they get what they want!
