And how is more unemployment going to help the situation?
To: Toughluck_freeper
It's not ... but apparently, at least part of the Yellow-Vest crowd's beef with Oedipus Macron is that he's not socialist enough

Everyone still wants socialism. But they’re almost out of other peoples’ money.

When Ceausescu gave his final speech, he promised wage hikes.
It didn’t save him.

Wait, he can do this on his own? He does not need Le Parliament to change the law? Is he President or King?

It won’t, but Macron and the lefties will feel good. That’s all that matters.

So he’s raising (stealing from workers) fuel taxes by 100’s per month, and stealing $100 a month from employers?!?!! To pay for it!
Genius!
To: aquila48
Raise it 100 Euros and tax them 65.

“He said people on the minimum wage would see their salaries increase by 100 a month from 2019 without extra costs to employers.”

He’ll never see 50. The Frenchie’s want blood. No way he lasts ten years.

the current numbers for France’s unemployment is bloated & artificial.

He said people on the minimum wage would see their salaries increase by 100 a month from 2019 without extra costs to employers. And for his next magic trick he'll pull a half euro coin from a child's ear to pay for an hour's increase.
