j07950 said:Thats not the discussion here...off topic...we've talked about that elsewhere...
And that's an opinion, not a fact.
Give it up...that's been talked about. That is your opinion and that of many other but is in no way a fact. Go do something worth while of your time.rtwngAvngr said:No. It's fact. Your nation is consumed with envy and your leadership would rather ally with terrorists for their own power than do the right thing.
And my comments are exactly on topic.

rtwngAvngr said:These are facts. All your nation does in run around agitating against the U.S. for no other reason than your extreme envy and moral bankruptcy. Your citizenry is more concerned about your pensions and lifestyles than it is with doing what is moral.
You are confused about the difference between facts and opinions it seems.

Going now...I'll speak to all of you others tomorrow...cheers!!!
Right...rtwngAvngr said:My reasons are good. It is imperative that the dangerous trends apparent in Europe right now be reversed, namely socialism and appeasement of terrorists.
j07950 said:So maybee France is too socialist for the good of foreign policies but than again I prefer my government to look out for it's own people before looking elsewhere.
France changes tack on economy, stressing reforms to cut budget deficit
07/05/2003
PARIS, May 7 (AFP) - The French government sent strong, if subtle, signals of a change of emphasis in economic management on Wednesday, talking of reforms to cut spending deficits just as the EU again waved disciplinary procedures.
Official statements here were peppered with references to deficit reduction to return within euro-zone limits next year, budget discipline and the virtues of "reform" of the economy.
The government was "mobilised" under the supervision of Prime Minister Jean-Pierre Raffarin, the government spokesman said.
And Finance Minister Francis Mer told the National Assembly that France would reply before an October 3 deadline to demands by the EU Commission for action to correct its deficit by 2004, saying "we shall do so in a responsible manner".
Mer had said before that he intended to meet the euro-zone deficit limit in 2004. But despite the official line that this emphasis on good housekeeping is all home-grown, some remarks suggest that disciplinary winds from Brussels have played a part in a change of tack.
padisha emperor said:So, socialism here is good.
And it is not really socialism, it is state intereventionnism.
Said1 said:There is no difference, it's the same thing.
Did you read the article I posted, France can't even meet reductions on public spending, what does that tell you???
I prefer our state being in deficit and receiving good health care and all the other benefits than people getting awful health cares and seeing poverty rise.
padisha emperor said:exactly !
the french deficit is here because the State spends lot of money for the welfare of citizens.
Yeah like that doesn't make sense...dilloduck said:You mean the State spends the citizens tax money on the health of it's citizens?
Would you be willing to admit that the US not only takes care of it's own citizens but by default is now also expected to take care of the poor citizens of the WHOLE world---isolationism is a lot cheaper huh?j07950 said:Yeah like that doesn't make sense...
I prefer it spends our money on our health than other things. At least we're not paying tax and having to also fully pay for our health care, like in the US.
