The Maries of French tradition were replaced by Kevins (after Home Alone) and Dylans (after Beverly Hills 90210).

Do those Kevins and Dylans say their names the American way or the French way? The French pronunciation would be considerably different from the American.

The most common trend it seems between the U.S. and France involves “the common” people the most and it is the transformation and export of work and jobs, mostly to Asia, which affected “stocks” far less than it did the populations that have reduced job expectations today. In sum “off shoring” affected France in ways similar to how it affected the U.S. but the price of it was not born by the elites and the common folk can see that.

France is so determined to separate church and state that Muslims can’t wear bags on their heads in public schools; they are determined not to let religious radicals (of ANY religion) change that dynamic of separation.

I’m sure the American e!ites are teaching the French elites how to steal the election.
