The French Great Socialist Revolution Will Be Homework-Free, And Very, Very Cold
Zerohedge ^ | 10/19/2012 | Tyler Durden

Whereas some may have welcomed the latest development in the Great French Socialist Revolution chronicles, primarily those 8-16 year olds who would directly benefit from president Francois Hollande's attempt to capture the vote of those still ineligible to actually vote, by promising to do away with homework (because it encourages "inequality" as homework apparently "favors the wealthy"), everyone else saw right through it for the sad attempt at populism it was. Luckily, the impact of this idiotic policy, if it were to actually pass, would not be visible for at least a decade at which point French society would be so dumb (not to mention poor) that few would actually care. However, another proposal being currently contemplated in France may have far more immediate terminal consequences to the life expectancies of those personally experiencing the reincarnation of wholesale of socialism. Because as Bloomberg notes, "Heating a French home could soon require an income tax consultation or even a visit to the doctor under legislation to force conservation in the nation’s $46 billion household energy market." Congratulations Europe: in your ongoing crusade of wealth redistribution (when all this could have been averted if you, and the US, had simply allowed the banks who control your society to collapse), you are about to make heating one's home a privilege for the despised Bourgeoisie, an act which must be monetarily punished, and socially ostracized.

More on this sad and pathetic at the same time development, coming to broke socialist countries near you:

Qui a eu cette idée folle
Un jour d´inventer l´école
C´est ce sacré Charlemagne
Sacré Charlemagne
De nous laisser dans la vie
Que les dimanches, les jeudis
C´est ce sacré Charlemagne
Sacré Charlemagne

Ce fils de Pépin le Bref
Nous donne beaucoup d´ennuis
Et nous avons cent griefs
Contre, contre, contre lui

Qui a eu cette idée folle
Un jour d´inventer l´école
C´est ce sacré Charlemagne
Sacré Charlemagne

Participe passé
4 et 4 font 8
Leçon de français
De mathématiques
Que de que de travail
Sacré sacré sacré Charlemagne

Il aurait dû caresser
Longtemps sa barbe fleurie
Oh Oh sacré Charlemagne
Sacré Charlemagne

Au lieu de nous ennuyer
Avec la géographie
Oh Oh sacré Charlemagne
Sacré Charlemagne

Il n´avait qu´à s´occuper
De batailles et de chasse
Nous n´serions pas obligés
D´aller chaque jour en classe

Il faut apprendre à compter
Et faire des tas de dictées
Oh Oh sacré Charlemagne
Sacré Charlemagne

Participe passé
4 et 4 font 8
Leçon de français
De mathématiques
Que de que de travail
Sacré sacré sacré Charlemagne

Car sans lui dans notre vie
Y n´y aurait que des jeudis
Oh Oh sacré Charlemagne
Oh Oh sacré Charlemagne
Oh Oh sacré Charlemagne...

You all can laugh but it's a brilliant strategy for the next election. He's sewn up the votes of every non-voting age youth in the country!

Oh wait....

How come everyone can see through this but not all the other equally stupid mandates of Equality?

Mark my words—this will end badly—Bloodshed is coming to France. Lots of folks are going to die before the Next Revolution. Liberal thoughts only work if violence is used—See history of USSR. Prediction: State will move left full tilt, go bankrupt, go violent, and then swing Right into a state that will be to the Right of Vichy and Law and Order. Nothing will return to normal for a generation. France is heading for ruin but from it a better France will come.

Gives us a lot of trouble
And we have a hundred complaints
Against, against, against him

Instead of boring us

He had only to deal
Battles and hunting
We would not be forced
To go to class every day

We must learn to count
And do a lot of dictations
