No. Hollande’s idiotic and rusty communist/socialist ideology will ruin his Presidency. The only question is how much of the French economy will be ruined, and how many people will have their lives hurt, before his Presidency ends.

Thinking instead of feeling? How un-progressive of the frogs.

Vladimir Putin got a 13% flat income tax adopted and he’s watched state spending like a hawk.

Russians know from experience what its like to be broke. You want a good steward steering the ship of state in these uncertain times.

Francois Hollande has learned nothing from Russia’s economic turnaround since the collapse of Communism in the 1990s.

I never thought I would see the day that the US and Russia were trading places.

I get a kick that this piece is worded that Depardieu may have ruined Hollande’s presidency.

No, Hollande has ruined Hollande’s presidency.

Russia is forced to be friendly to the taxpayer, and to be fiscally frugal. Their population is aging, dying off and decreasing in numbers every year.

It’s all good, though. The Muslim population is sharply rising.

You KNOW it’s bad in France when you have to move to Russia for less legal robbery from the government.

With the criminal psychopath Obama as President of the US, Russia might be one of the safest nations on the planet to live within right now. US Obama Drones with hellfire missiles do not fly over Russian territory.

I don't blame GD for leaving France, but he may regret taking Russian citizenship. Contrarians don't fair well in Russia.

In sufficient numbers and volume, this used to be called “brain drain”, as people with ability fled areas where ability was punished.

Once upon a time the West used to benefit from brain drain.
