Re: WC 150K Post Challenge - You Ready?!
Rue, the last person who made mention of eating cake during French civil unrest lost her head. If there’s a knock on the door, don’t answer.
Appreciate the sentiment but I'm not in power or politics.
These French protestors want low taxes but all the social services still and extras. They somehow think that the rich should pay for everything. They also believe the government should force workplaces to give them increases.
Now, being honest. I get where they're coming from however in a free global market the government has zero ability to tell companies what to do.
Companies care about their shareholders, not their employees, sadly. They will cut where they can to appease these shareholders.
If your country is not appealing to companies then they won't invest in your country or the workforce there.
That's what these protestors do not understand. France is not appealing to companies, in general. It has a lot of reforming to do to make entrepreneurs and companies interested. France has had decades of decline because it won't or can't reform. That's the problem.
I'm not saying that France needs to turn into the USA it even the UK but it needs to make things easier to run a company.
Lastly, I'm not a globalist. I'm a big believer in local businesses and local jobs. That's a true economy but when a company or business can't run efficiently that's a true failing of the system. That's where France needs to change. Things can't stay the same as they are and people expect miracles to happen. It doesn't work like that.
The problem is there seems to be little enthusiasm to change.
