Paris Burns. Can you Feel the Bern?

By Rich Kozlovich

I would love for someone, anyone, to tell me of a socialist state that's not a mess.  The only socialist state economies that have survived are those that abandoned socialism and instituted capitalist reforms.  France is not going to be one of them, and just like the EU, is doomed.

On November 24, 2018 Thomas Adamson posted the article, French protesters angry over fuel taxes clash with police, saying: 
French police fired tear gas and water cannons to disperse violent demonstrators in Paris on Saturday, as thousands gathered in the capital and beyond and staged road blockades to vent anger against rising fuel taxes...........Tense clashes on the Champs-Elysees that ended by dusk Saturday saw police face off with demonstrators who burned plywood, wielded placards reading “Death to Taxes” and upturned a large vehicle. 
At least 19 people, including four police officers, were slightly hurt and one person had more serious injuries in the day of unrest in Paris, according to police.   Macron responded in a strongly worded tweet: “Shame on those who attacked (police). Shame on those who were violent against other citizens ... No place for this violence in the Republic.” 
“It’s going to trigger a civil war and me, like most other citizens, we’re all ready,” said Benjamin Vrignaud, a 21-year-old protester from Chartres.  “They take everything from us. They steal everything from us,” said 21-year-old Laura Cordonnier.......
France is fast becoming unrulable, and the current President is just as incompetent as his predecessors, and worse yet, he's arrogant in his incompetence.  The people of France are socialists, and absolutely reject any concept of fiscal responsibility, demanding benefits that can't be paid for, and now they're having a fit. 

"They take everything from us.  They steal everything from us".  Remarkable!  I love that, it's a typical socialist meme.  These snowflakes take and take and then these economic and social infants, who've been treated like babies for decades, riot when anything doesn't go their way. 

Like Greece and so many other European countries, the French government has been a big sugar daddy for these socialists and now they're finally running out of other people's money and the piper has to be paid.  This current mess should have been obvious to the most casual observer.  The ruling elites have encouraged it with their constant appeasement for those who can't be appeased. That why babies have tantrums. 
Emmanuel Macron Legitimized the Violent Far-Left in France Young Voices Advocates | Posted: Jan 29, 2018 - Recently, Emmanuel Macron’s government decided to can an infrastructure project for the construction of an airport. In 2008, the government approved the construction of this airport, which was supposed to hold 9 million passengers by 2050, located close to the northwestern city of Nantes. For almost ten years, environmentalist radicals and violent far-left activists have squatted on the property in order to prevent the project becoming a reality. The French president, by giving in to violent protesters, has created a worrying precedence case........To Read More....
Well, now it's time to pay the piper, and this isn't going to stop over taxes.  They may temporarily get this under control, but it's just a matter of time before it erupts again, and this is going to spread over issues regarding immigration and Muslim violence. 
Europe's Next World War Begins in France Posted by Daniel Greenfield Saturday, October 21, 2017 @ Sultan Knish Blog  - Interior Minister Gerard Collomb made it official. France is "in a state of war”. It’s not just rhetoric. Bombs turn up in a posh Parisian suburb. Two young women are butchered at a train station. And it’s just another week of an Islamic World War III being fought in France..........To Read More...
Can any reasonable person be surprised at the current riotous events taking place in France?  No one can satisfy the French, they're spoiled children, and have demonstrated it over and over again when anyone has tried to install anything resembling economic and fiscal responsibility.  France is a mess, and it's not going to get better. 
Who Will Prevail in Sunday’s French Presidential Contest and Earn the Right to Preside over the Nation’s Decline? - by Dan Mitchell @ International Liberty - The last time there was a presidential election in France, I like to think my endorsement made a difference in the outcome. Now that another election is about to take place, with a first round this Sunday and a runoff election between the top-2 candidates two week later, it’s time to once again pontificate about the political situation in France. But before looking at the major candidates, let’s consider a couple of pieces of economic data to get a sense of the enormous challenges that will have to be overcome to boost France’s anemic economy..........To Read More....
Oh, one more thing. All the Hollywood lefties keep "threatening" to move to Canada if America votes in someone that's not just another leftie socialist like Clinton or Obama. Well, I suggest they move to France, just one more socialist paradise where government takes care of everything. 

Including their money.....and take Bernie with them.
