It will be interesting to see an entire country “Go Galt.” So everyone can’t physically leave ...what happens when they refuse the taxes? Avoid them to the point they pay nothing? Make France the next Greece, which I understand is one of the roots of the Greek problem[tax avoidance.]

We are seeing it happen to states like California...You can pass whatever you want and folks will find a way to stop giving their hard earned wealth to you. Gonna say full time employment and its host of “requirements” is at 32 hrs a week? Ok...you don’t work but 30.

Long beach CA mandated a living wage of $13/hr to be paid to hotel workers in hotels of over 100 rooms. Simple: they are downsizing the hotels.

The proper response to the greedy grasp at other peoples’ wallets.

Gotta love it...and scu them all.

If only the French would realize that it was their vote for a socialist that destroyed their country.
