 masbury says: Smash-and-grab capitalism's inherent instability reveals a much-ignored fact: the French economy, employment, and infrastructure are in much better shape than what business lust has left to the USA. Its healthcare is the best in the world. The average household's debt is half that of the USA. Those damned socialist. No more French Fries now, whatever they might be. fta French household debt is half that in America, no bank has failed, none has been nationalized, executive pay is reasonable, and “the income gap between the top 10% and the bottom 10% is far smaller than in Britain or America.”The country is crisscrossed by 230-mph TGV trains, 80% of the power is nuclear (and more is exported), its auto producers are in reasonably good shape, Air France is the most profitable airline in the world, and French-dominated Airbus sells more planes than Boeing. The United States is certain to learn something from the French success in long-term state planning, infrastructure development and, one would hope, will build a vastly improved health s... Chips, as in Fish & Chips. American call those French Fries. ratc: Well, I guess we can hope. Those damned socialist. No more French Fries now, whatever they might be. Chips, as in Fish & Chips. American call those French Fries.Forgive me, it's just me being mischievous. Before the illegal invasion of Iraq, I would not have known. When the French refused to follow Bush blindly into another quagmire, the whole world learnt what French Fries were from the White House bully, high on god. Best chips in Ireland were Italian Fries!!! Now maybe Chinese Chips!!! Harder now to get any fish!!! La France ce n'est pas le béret ,la baguette de pain,la révolution, les socialistes,les grèves,les milliardaires sur la Côte d'Azur,le festival de Cannes,les frites,la gastronomie,le bon vin,La tour Eiffel...etc... Ce n'est pas non plus le TGV,Airbus,l'énergie nucléaire et un pays agricole situé en plein coeur de l'Europe. C'est tout cela et beaucoup de choses en plus ! C'est pour cela que j'aime la France et que je m'y sens bien,malgré le fait que je ne porte pas de béret,et ne mange pas de baguette ni de frites et ne veut pas rétablir la guillotine sur la place de la Concorde. Vive la France,l'Italie,la Grande Bretagne ,les USA,et tous les autres pays que j'ai visité ou pas.L'univers est petit vu depuis Hubble.... The concept that money can be created from nothing needs to be recognized as the illegal scam that it is. Trading in futures is unethical. The workers need to get fully paid and compensated before the stockholders see a single dime. Enough of this nonsense of making money by economic conjuration and legerdemain. America needs to go back on the Gold Standard; it's money's value is entirely illusionary, and that's one of the basic reasons why it screwed up itself and the world so bad. Dump it as the global trade currency before something else bad happens. |
