What is the definition of “austerity” that the press is using?
Aren’t those countries still running massive deficits?

How in the heck in this day and age of ecomonic devastation do idiots elect socialists, if not for their own stupidity and greed?

which combines taxing the rich, raising public spending and lowering the retirement ageThis is a disaster for the French. Their only way out now is repudiation of debts by printing.

the problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people’s money

Does this Leftist believe that the Tooth Fairy is French? Angela Merkel better have the key to Germany’s treasury secured in her knickers.

Well, I wouldn’t suggest Government bonds, and there will be a short window where the media has enough folks believing a Democrat control of any one of the 3 parts of the legislative branch will produce a economic expansion, but don’t look for that to last past January.

He’s a socialiste, so he must tax the rich if he is to stay true to his ideology. Yes, there will be austerity, but it will be because of economic contraction from a shrinking private sector.
I don’t think that the markets have ‘priced this in’. The euro will drop and the EU will become unglued. Germans still want to save and they want a strong currency. This appears impossible now with Greece, Italy, Spain, Portugal, and now La France.

Time to put my 401K back into guaranteed funds? I did Friday morning in anticipation of Sarkozy losing and throwing the markets into turmoil. Worst case: I'm wrong and lose a few bucks. Best case, I'm right and I protected my profits.

She does. And she has already brought up the spectre of war if this does not get resolved.
