I wonder if the STUPID French government is rethinking the "merits" of Socialism??? (chuckle)
Openly embrace sloth. I like that. Sounds like our governments.
The French model really seems to incense Anglo-Saxons.
France will keep her model, because her people want it.
America will keep her model.
And over time we will see the differences.
While loitering is a simple misdemeanor, loitering with existential intent is felonious. And possession of angst with intent to distribute is a capital offense.
A little AllBran every morning should help with that REGULARIZATION issue.
"You're not judged on merit, but on whether you look and sound the part. Speak lots of leaden jargon: People will suspect you have an inside track."
You hafta admit, a lot of her "tips" are pretty accurate...
French Students Take to Streets Over New Employment Law
A new law aimed at reducing youth unemployment (currently 23 percent) by making it easier to hire and fire young workers has sparked an outcry of opposition from the intended beneficiaries. As many as 1.5 million people participated in street demonstrations to protest the “First Job Contract” law passed by Parliament.
Jacques Esse, one of the students leading the protest, denounced the law. “They are trying to take away our leisure and force us into boring jobs,” said Esse. “We need money, not excessive demands on our time.”
Esse contends that forcing young people into the workforce will have anti-democratic impacts. “Who will march in the streets to protest bad laws if everyone has jobs?” asked Esse.
Esse demanded that the government save his generation from a life of meaningless toil. “Our time and our minds should be free to create the new ideas needed for a new millennium,” said Esse. Esse proposed that corporations and the rich be taxed to provide stipends for young intellectuals like himself.
Asked what new ideas for a new millennium he has, Esse responded that his proposed stipends for young intellectuals was just the first of many he was sure would be forthcoming if he isn’t bogged down by a dead-end job and has the time to work on them.
