"The people at the top are out of touch. We pay taxes -- we don't know why. Everything is going down the drain."

Yup.

The French government doesn't work for the French people, it appeases Washington DC at the expense of French citizens.

Keep striking, keep protesting.

It's time for a Maiden in Paris.

At the same time, France doesn't need a fascist like Le Pen either. Macron had better get his kit together.

Le Poison Pen will remain dry. Big Oil huge profits. The workers want a slice of that cake deservedly.

Sorry but you could not be further from the truth.

Yes Frenches pay a lot of taxes but in counterparty have one of the most generous social welfare system in the world (for ex: 13 % of GDP spent on pension which may be the highest in the world, free education if you go to the public schools and universities).

In France you can become a medical doctor for free. Compare that to a US University, a private Japanese university or even a Japanese public university.
