I, too, salute the French for rejecting efforts to impoverish their workers.
Americans have become sheep. We allow our corporations to hold us in thrall with the twin threats of outsourcing and off shoring jobs.
The right is gnashing their teeth in rage at the audacity of the French worker. Good.
Vive la France, baise Bush.

Baste after rolling him in bread crumbs. Cook at 375 for about 12 hours. Serves six fat cats.

Elaine,

What happened to the comment I posted on your previous French piece? It's not there any more.

Yes, someone deleted you and I am angry about it, Richard.


Will see what I can do about it.

The problem the French and others will have is when the unemployed young - and there are many of them - become the unemployed middle-aged and expect the government to tax the employed mercilessly to pay benefits.

The French - and others - have a system they just won't be able to afford for too many more years - too few workers supporting (generously) too many unemployed who want jobs but can't get them because those economies are so stable (i.e., stagnant).

It'll be fun to watch from a safe distance though! Meanwhile, the best thing we can do for the French is not buy their stuff so they can keep it for their own poeple.

How's your Mandarin lessons coming along?
