Sure, if you like worker strikes, boss kidnappings, burning cars, and menacing "youths" (young muslims) roaming the streets.

I neglected to notate this was the Drudge headline.

The French are consuming their seed corn. You can live pretty good for a while doing that.

French food sucks.

[alice_in_bubbaland]

France??? Yikes! They don’t like to take showers and they are snooty.

It you are a lefty and are planning to move there, don’t forget your gasmask.

Theres no ice hockey in France (no NHL anyway). That automatically disqualifes.

[bereanway]

LOL, that’s what I thought. Maybe they consider watching disaffected yutes torching cars to be cheap entertainment.

[ThunderSleeps]

France? I’ll pass. I’ve talked to family members and other people who have actually been there. Based on their descriptions, I wouldn’t even visit, let alone live there.

Can we send our illegals to France?

Germany is widely praised for its efficiency and leisure facilities, with the magazine noting that 'the Harz Mountains now has a specialist hiking trail for nudists. Germany is arguably the world's most naturist-friendly country'.

This report should be posted in Spanish in the Mexican papers with instructions on how to sneak into France. The Mexican government already publishes “How to sneak into the US” materials, they can just change a few words.

Read the Magazine sometimes.
It’s crap .... full of real estate scams ...

What were the grading criteria?

1% food
1% economic development
1% tall piles of bare metal in the middle of the capital
1% nice tree lined marching roads heading from east to west
1% nuclear power
95% ability of population to speak French?

How to write your best XXXXX in the world list:
1. Decide what country you want to win
2. Weight the measurement criteria so that country wins
3. Check for undesirable countries coming too high up the list. If that happens either change the weighting slightly or just remove them from competition.

France, if you like bad food, bad wine, and rude people.

“But it is the country’s bon vivant lifestyle that sets it apart.”

I can get that in southwest Louisiana without the torched cars. Has anyone eaten hot dogs roasted over car bonfires?

I do think they have one of the best leaders they’ve had in a long time.
