The retirement age needs to be increased.
The Greek have been lazy and slothful and have retired without enough being saved for their pensions.
They have been the the proverbial European Grasshopper.
it is time for them to transform into ants.
The Greek referendum
Re: The Greek referendum
Beleaguered PM George Papandreou will step aside and his successor will be chosen at talks in the morning, the statement said.
He and main opposition leader Antonis Samaras attended the talks, hosted by President Karolos Papoulias.
The announcement follows a week of turmoil over Greece's debt crisis.
Once the new leader has been named, the president will invite all parties to join the national unity government, the statement said.
Mr Papandreou had been trying to build a national unity government but Mr Samaras, of the New Democracy party, had been refusing to negotiate unless his rival resigned first.
The two men also disagreed sharply on the timing of new elections, with Mr Papandreou seeking a delay of several months while Mr Samaras wanted them immediately.
There has been speculation that the new governing coalition could be led by Finance Minister Evangelos Venizelos.
