It’s catastrophic because people have stopped traveling there. I went to Barcelona a week after a terrorist drove a van down the Ramblas, killing 13 people. That was seen as a random act that didn’t affect tourism. That’s not the case with Paris. I wouldn’t go there for free and people from all over the world are thinking the same thing.

they merely postponed it for 3 months.... they will pretend to have a "discussion" and then proceed with the taxes.

They feel the heat, and still can't see the light, they will have to be raised closer to the luminaires on the lampposts.

Yellow vestors blocking roads by leaving their cars to plug up road systems, which shuts down the commerce system of a state/country. Completely plugging the roads shuts things down FAST! Only let dire emergency cases through!

Indeed, the yellow jacket cars are not quoted on their blue book due to being green uncompliant...

The economic issue is the finance ministry’s own doing in concocting taxes after taxes to feed parasites. Bashing the the yellow vest will make it worse

If you destroy cars they can’t burn EEEEVIL fossil fuels.
The Greenies should be happy.

I wonder what they think of all that toxic smoke emitted by the burning cars. Oh, never mind.....

I’d go to Paris again without hesitation. It’s a very easy city to visit. The Metro system is fantastic. Everything is just a short walk from a stop -except the Eiffel tower. You need to take a taxi. I spent three days in the Louvre and felt rushed. Other places are nearly as great. It seemed every street had bistros on it. My favorite meal was a sort of Caprese salad and beer or wine. But hotels are relatively expensive and the 3rd world immigrants are generally a bad influence all around.

Exact Rimmer quote: “They say that every society is only three meals away from revolutiuon.”...

...”Deprive a culture of food for three meals, and you’ll have an anarchy. And it’s true, isn’t it? You haven’t eaten for a couple of days, and you’ve turned into a barbarian.”

The Muzzies will be out on the streets first. Then the French will be called racists if Muzzies don’t get their rations first.

Speaking of Moonbeam, I wonder when CA voters are going to riot about high taxes.

Imaginary voters don’t riot.
