You are buying more French goods than you think. They own several hotel/motel chains here as well as Michelan owning BF Goodrich tires. There is a long list of French owned companies. Ever heard of Bic? The list goes well beyond what most of us think.

There is a thread around here on FR which details the list of French owned, or subsidized companies, operating here in the United States.

I gave up buying TA Radials but I am stuck taking "Plavix" (a french anticoagulant ) if anyone knows of a substitute, I would be happy to tell my Dr. to switch me. I hate having to buy a french pharmaceutical!
