That's why they are so depressed. In the U.S. when things don't work, like an overheated economy, an over reached administration, we let them die, then we rebuild. Pity the French who only dream of past glory which was not that glorious in the first place. They don't let the past die, and everybody is dying a slow death with it. It's hard to ask the 'peasants' to sacrifice their 35 hr work week, and welfare payment, while the 'aristocrats' live like Louis XVI (pardon me if I get those Roman numerals wrong). Pity the Euros who are following the French like lemmings off the cliff. I especially feel sorry for the Brits.ichttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05497457288480848007noreply@blogger.com
