Submitted by dfabbri on

El País (14.01.2019) Los Presupuestos de 2019 vuelven a incluir un préstamo de Hacienda a la Seguridad Social para pagar las pensiones. Ascenderá a unos 15.000 millones, el equivalente al 1,2% del PIB, apuntan fuentes de Trabajo. Es una cantidad parecida a la de 2018 y supera los 10.000 millones de 2017. Estos créditos cubren el desfase entre lo recaudado por cotizaciones y lo pagado en pensiones para las pagas de verano y Navidad. Así evitan que se agote el Fondo de Reserva.
