The French are really getting fucked by taxes.And Germans follow closely
73% of the french public support the protests. Marcon is a elitist and needs to be taken out of power. Viva Le Pen
Agreed, she sucked during the debate.Lol le Pen was raised in a fucking castle, she has nothing for the working class and had been exposed against macron.
France's system of government is very centralized, remnants of the country's divine monarchy system and Napoleon's changes to the country's territorial administration. The central government has total control over the executive branch, the legislative branch and the content and writing of all new laws, the agenda of the parliament and it also presides over the judicial branch. Local government also answers directly to the state, and they don't have much power to take decisions of their own. What this means is that, once the election is over, citizens have no path that they can use to get their grievances heard in a civilized matter. So the way things managed to reach some kind of homoeostasis despite this is through the citizens going on massive strikes and protests in order to force (kind of) the centralized state to listen to what they have to say. If you wanted to see the positives you could also say that this kind of set-up allows the state to act quickly and efficiently in a chosen direction instead of being stuck in dead-lock for years which happens under other systems, which can be good assuming the chosen direction is good.
It's an admirable quality of the French to launch mass protests and disruptions. It makes it harder for their government to be less accountable. We would do well to emulate the French.Rioting is a national pastime in France. They never truly got over 1789.

I'm French and here are some explanation :
Most of the french population usually work for 1200€ (1500$)/month, have to pay a rent 600-800€ (1000$)/month, have to pay 200-300€ (400$) for oil for their cars, and the rest for food, kids needs etc.. and the goverment keep adding taxes for BS on the majority, and nothing on the wealthy folks.
Basically, that's the problem.
The gas tax is the most fucked up shitty way to deal with how much americans consume that I can think of. Fuck Obama for endorsing this idea when he was president and any other politician that endorses it too.
The answer is federally enforced laws forcing car companies to produce vehicles that use WAY less gas.
Istead they gotta fuck the poor guy over once again.
Yeah diesel is very popular over there, very common. Over here I am paying about $3.19 for a gallon of diesel. Petrol is $2.39 a gallon, so I envy the petrol guys when I go fill up my tank.
Meanwhile she has to charge her car every night while you can go weeks without doing so and don't need to map your routes on long trips.I'm jealous each morning when my wife unplugs her car in a warm garage and I think about freezing at a gas station while I wait for a slow pump to put 32 gallons of gas in my van.
The "Yellow Vests" are bringing back blast from the past.
Agreed, she sucked during the debate.
But even if she was from the hood lol and had been great during the debate against Macron, the French still would have picked the Rotschild Banker, as they've always been ordered to do.
Her father's program, then hers would have been way better for the working class. Check who was for what and who was against what in the 20 last years.
