France fuel protestors are chanting . We want Trump!!

It is very 'American' to 'not care' (or, at least say something like that), yet Americans are hypersensitive to descriptions of them and their country. Lacking substance, they fear for their status and being inferior. This is testified to very strongly by the exaggerated swagger of speech and certain actions.

Entirely and utterly wrong. Foreigners are the rudest people on God's green earth to Americans while, predictably, accusing us of being rude. Look at the NAME of this board--US Message Board. Yet here you are, weighing in on the smallest matters of domestic policy like we care what you think about it. That's first.

Second, the world loves to crap all over everything American but also, loves to have the hand out when any help is needed. Guess what? Much of America is onto this now and, like our President Trump, we're eager to tell you to mind your own. Mind your own business and pay your own way.

Don't like it? I'm happy to repeat:

We.

Don't.

Care.

Not ALL foreigners consider you yanks to be those things...in fact very few that I know have those views. It's leftards mostly, and they consider ME to be a nasty person. For some reason they don't like it when I call them out on their malignant ideological crap.

[Wyatt earp]

Loooooool I'm half the time in france, speak french, half of my family are french....they think we are idiots for having a clown In the white house. Dont let a video fool you

Pictures say a thousand words, you just post stool samples..

[Wyatt earp]

You have to know that the DEMOCRAT PROPAGANDA WING isn't TELLING you ALL of the story... the GAS TAX is for GLOBAL WARMING... and the GOOD people of France have had ENOUGH of this LEFTIST BULL SHIT.

Make up your mind....do you guys hate french people or love them?

You have to know someothing about the French people in general...they are mostly educated, well mannered, healthy, they have access to healthcare at almost no cost, to education at also almost no crazy costs....they have social safety net, for their sick, disabled, unfortunate. They are also heavily unionized, that's why they have more vacation time, more benefits, and also longer life expectancy.

And they know math, unlike you..

The 'ugly American' ......coming to a local protest near you.....

The biggest threat to liberty are wealthy socialists. They don't give a damn about $10 per gallon for gas.

They are committed to obliterating the middle class.

I keep telling you it is the old FEUDAL system. For those not familiar with that system....

Very true, there are exceptions. I just wish they weren't so few and far between, especially in Europe. Sigh

 

[Wyatt earp]

It I werid how the common man in Europe wants Trump, yet the elite in Europe hates him.

[there4eyeM]

In fact, most French people like America and Americans. Of course there are attributes they find disturbing. America has some very disturbing attributes! Yet, so many Americans are absolutely vitriolic about even the mildest perceived criticism that America's oldest ally might produce.

If fuel for vehicles were so expensive, reasonable sized vehicles that used other fuels would be produced, to the benefit of every human.

If I may assure you, Ma'am, they are very many; not few at all.

I enjoy how you deflect , you do know this thread is about a huge petrol tax and France wants a guy to stop it right?

 

[there4eyeM]

The proposals for increased taxes have been withdrawn.

If the price was FAIR then yes; but when it is just to drive some nutcase weird political agenda then stuff them!!

Sadly there is a great deal of corruption and dysfunction in the USA, thanks to the criminals running our government.

Here is a good article very much on the topic.

The Ghost of Christmas Present
By James Howard Kunstler
Kunstler.com
Interestingly, it’s the people of France who are going apeshit at this moment in history and not the much more beaten-down Americans. For all the deformities of the EU, France still maintains a general quality-of-life so far above what is found in the US these days that we look like some left-behind evolutionary dead end here in this wilderness of strip-malls and muffler shops. They live in towns and cities that are designed to bring people together in public. They support small business in spite of the diktats of Brussels. They maintain an interest in doing things well for its own sake. The French are rioting these days not simply over the cost of diesel fuel but because they’ve had enough impingements on their traditional ways of life and seek to arrest the losses.
