"France's public government sector, for instance, accounts for more than 50 percent of GDP. In other words, private business in France is in the minority. "

Along with the 68% tax rate, this is why they're so rude and mad all the time. They just don't realize it.

I've got a solution to our immigration problem and France's problem finding people who will do work. One stone.

Until we voted in the Conservatives up here in January, we we're starting to resemble something a little too much like Franch, especially when it comes to government sector. Not sure about the States, but both our countries should be using France as a bad example and do the opposite. Crap country France is.

Fox News reported that over a million French were in that protest today all over France. I guess it took the French to show up the Meixcans with their little 500,000 person protest last weekend. LOL!!

What incentive is there to work when the government takes over half of what your earn? Probably make more on the dole. Socialism -- the gift that keeps on giving.
