Interesting how the French protest like this over a rise in fuel prices, but won’t say a word about the Islamic invasion and subsequent acts of terrorism. Priorities...

Good article except for the gratuitous NeverTrump aside at the end.

The Yellow Vest folks look like the normal folks of France. Like us.

France needs a full reset, not just another French strike and demonstration. A storm the Bastille moment with Macron deposed or worse would wake up a lot of people.

I appreciated the tone of this article.

It’s nice to read something that doesn’t shout at you in all caps or rely on italics, boldface, and exclamation points to make its point.

Even witty turns of phrase and sarcasm can get tiring, no matter how clever and quotable they are.

This author comes across as someone just talking -— making his observations and venturing his opinions on what he thinks they mean. And that is almost always enough. It was refreshing.

It does appear that the philosophical reasoning behind many of the 10 issues listed, were those faced by Louis XVI...

Just sayin....

They want to herd humans into bee-swarm cities that NEED high levels of public subsidies and control to run efficiently. Automation and robots will take over increasingly industrialized farming.

Read H.G. Wells book the Time Machine. In it the final human population is very healthy, very well provided for, and dumber than idiots with their lives sustained by a system run by a depraved society of degenerates who themselves know nothing other than how to throw the switches that keeps their system running - and who get their meat by culling the herds of humans to levels the system can sustain.
