They also demand 6 weeks' vacation and a 35 hour work week, correct?

They already have that. The ritoers are protesting any change.

France is stuck in socialist economics and any change to become competitive is met with a violent reaction as we are seeing now.

Now would be a good time for the US to make it known that there are problems with some French cheeses and inspections will have to be done.
