This is what happened when France did away with the message of Rue du Bac of 1830.
I’ve watched a few of their shows. It’s amazing how many naive people with money go in to some of those places.
Some of them have nice places - but I see a lot of two-burner stoves or just a microwave. And a fridge about 1/4 or 1/5 the size of American fridges.
[$1,700-$2,500 for an apartment or rent a house]
(that’s per month, of course)
They need to demand Frexit and an expulsion of the invaders.
They have it posted as an event on facebook which cracks me up. And they have something like 70,000 people who say they are going. Although last Sat they had 300,000 in the streets.
70,000 at Macron’s home?
Ping us, please!
The more I hear about modern day Europe, the less I want go. I’ve been at about 0 in terms of interest for decades.
Every where we went to the city at noon, the ragheads start praying in the middle of the street. From What i understand, they cant do it around the Eiffel, for tourist purposes..

Oh yeah. Think I saw that link but didn’t open it. Thanks.
The way things are, I rather live in Dubai than paris.
Merkel made a remark a while back in response to criticism of immigration that drew controversy - what is a German? she said. Since WW2, Germans have apologized for being German. By diluting the pop, and then asking, what is a German?, did Merkel attempt to redefine or, what’s the word, reduce the need for future apologizing, paving the way for a larger militarized Germany (currently less than 1/4m active duty)? But her new guests didn’t want to enlist. Or do much of anything it seems. Always wondered what her end-game thinking was.
You can have Dubai. I’ll take Paris in a heartbeat.
Looks exactly like New York to me!
I don't mind that so much, considering what they did. The problem is that they demand the rest of the continent commit cultural suicide right along with them.
I get claustrophobic just LOOKING at that picture.

1950: Beirut is the “Paris of the Middle East”
2018: Paris is the “Beirut of Europe”
I often think back to the book, The Sovereign Individual by Rees-Mogg and Davidson. They predicted the large nation states would crumble and new (sometimes old) forms of government would take their place. Considering the divide in this country between the cities and the rest of the country, it is possible that we could see city-states once again. Works for me.
And a fridge about 1/4 or 1/5 the size of American fridges.

The French do not need big refrigerators. The key word for them is FRESH. The cremerie with all dairy products including hundreds of cheeses and eggs, the butcher shop where you can select which cut you want and how thick, the market with fresh vegetables and the bakery with fresh bread are never far from where you live. French do not shop for a week and are not fond of supermarkets or chains. Frozen food is not to their taste either. They can prepare a delicious meal with a little of this and a little of that and you would think it is a banquet for a king. Life in France is quite different and there are many things we could learn from them when it comes to enjoying your life.
