France is a weak country of people who hardly work in the first place. If it weren’t for other countries, their national language would be German. Now they want “more leisure time”. They already have more leisure time than most places on earth.
This is what the US can expect if the likes of the current administration stay in power, if progressives, the ACLU advocates, left wing idiots, and other entitlement minded people become the majority. Luckily, the majority in this country believe in conservative values as well as a proper work ethic. Europeans are lazy and entitlement minded because they learned to be that way back through generations. Socialistic cultures can expect failure eventually unless the European governments do what France is attempting.
In France the people do not hestitate to take to the streets to fight for their rights.
In America we sit idly with our heads in the sand. We do nothing while pundits aggressively and shamelessly attack our teachers and firefighters as useless welfare recipients at the same time as they shill for a $3 trillion tax break on the very richest Americans. They point to our upside down public pension plans while ignoring the Wall St bigwigs who knowingly sold those pension plans ticking time bombs, marketing them as “AAA” rated securities. Our national dialog has become a disgrace- the only voices being heard are coming from people with absolutely atrocious values like Newt Gingrich and Nancy Pelosi. It is shameful- both on the right and the left (is there even a difference anymore?).
If you want to keep your rights you have to fight for them. Read more books. Study history closely. Turn off the TV and the radio- tune out the pundits and the shills. Make yourself heard!
Matt: you must be too young to remember that France (our sometimes ally with no balls) refused to let American war planes fly over their puny airspace during the Gulf War. These bearded, beret wearing, baguette munching pricks have never done anything significant in terms of contributing to the world. Now, they want to government to subsidize their lazy _sses so they can continue to “relax” and enjoy life while the rest of the world works. _ _ _ _ Them.
Thank You Wallace for pointing Matt in the proper direction. Matt needs to work for the current administration and learn the hard way how to fail.
Retire at age 60 on the states’ watch? Rediculous…and the reason these fools are throwing rocks in the streets is because the state wants to raise the age to 62. That’s not “fighting for their rights” as Matt says…that’s selfish, lazy, and a take care of me attitude. P—on the frogs.
I don’t think Matt was actually stating if he was for or against what France is doing. I think his point is we need to stand up and fight. Such as our country is allowing the few to protest, the majority here should as well. We have people in AZ protesting illegals being in our state. They are for the illegals being here. We need to protest against those people, but we don’t. We just let the minority march and get their way. That’s why this country is slowly falling apart. So I for one, agree with Matt that we all need to speak up and not let the minority rule. Less welfare, fewer taxes, smaller government is what the majority want, but why is that not happening? Because the minority is the squeaky wheel. I for one vote every election, but not everyone does.
There is nothing wrong with the protesting. In America you live to work in lieu of working to live. And for what? There is no longer an American Dream. Look at all of the taxes that we pay out of our pockets. We (the middle class & upper middle class) are severely over-taxed. The rich stay rich, the poor stay poor, and the middle-class who pay the majority of the taxes are not allowed to get ahead. You pay taxes for the tollways that are built and then turnaround and have to pay tolls in order to drive on them. Didn’t we pay for them with our taxes in the first place, but I bet Wallace pays the tolls with no questions asked. Wallace is not getting Matts point. Americans are over-worked and under paid!
Actually it’s raising early retirement age to 62. Their full retirement age is 65.
