It is simply a matter of fact that the French economy is crap. The Economist, well respected in it's own right, has done an excellent job covering their inadequacies.

It is also a matter of fact that France is objectively (according to the HDI) a worse place to live than the United States. This ignoring that the United States is a continent unto itself, and has states within it that would be better compared to states in Southeastern Europe.

So because of all your "facts" of France, the US is going the way of Venezuala... because reasons?

Idiot.

By the way, according to the census French citizens average life expectancy is 82.52 years, compared to United States' 78.54 years, so objectively, you're full of shit.

The United States is going the way of Venezuela because they're endorsing street violence, have substituted ideology for facts, have embraced anti-growth policies, and are led by a bartender / waitress messiah to rival the bus driver Maduro.

But that'd be pretty disingenuous of me to just base my "objectively better place to live" conclusion on a singular topic, right? Objectively? See where I'm going with this?

I will agree we have substituted ideology with facts. We just had to live through four years of trumpers ignoring reality so they can be good little cultists. You're 100% right, and it's a step in the right direction for you to admit your errors.

Demonization is grotesque. A comedy.





No way, you are talking about economy, I am talking about human people.
Human people are voting, and the bottom 50% has much more vote than 3 billionnaires.

person laid out important facts you didnt like?
Words. Bad words. what you say. bad. things that are bad. A horror.

holy shit, a bunch of conspiracy hot air and empty phrases, that's all you could do?

what exactly is 'creeping socialism in every facet of life and society', lol? what exactly does that mean for the people, how would it manifest in reality, how is it unamerican, and how likely is it under biden? you're literally just fearmongering with "scary" words. it's like you're OAN for jsp. you're not even ashamed to use the same lazy 'democrat gun grabber' rhetoric that people engaged in when obama became president, lol. do you actually not realise how silly that is?

also, what'd be unamerican about giving your citizens a vote? what's unamerican about protecting the environment (just ignoring the fact that it's ridiculous to suggest that biden, who is well-connected with fossil fuel, could be anywhere close to 'radical' on this in the first place)? what is unamerican about police not indiscriminately killing american citizens (just ignoring the fact that biden, even at the height of the 'defund the police' movement explicitly spoke out AGAINST it)? which american "values" would be violated addressing those issues? be specific - because this sure sounds like you have a very narrow view of who you consider a 'real american', and who you don't - but maybe i'm mistaken.

you're literally just labeling every possible policy you personally disagree with as 'unamerican' in order to fabricate an 'argument', lol. again, no concrete policy or anything even resembling substance and logic coherence. that really sounds like you're just another uncritical conspiracy nut - not that it really surprises me, but sometimes your posts read like you want to be taken seriously and considered a 'reasonable' person...

again, there is a difference between policies you personally disagree with and policies that are a "threat to the nation and its future" - and apparently you're too far gone to distinguish between those, or rather you have a very limited understanding of what that "nation" consists of. very typical for the fourteen words crowd though...

The strategy of the Southern Democrats after reunification was very simple: Impose a welfare state. Those who are not successful and capable of caring for themselves, the state provides their minimal subsistence. In return, the welfare class needs to continue voting for the Democrat, otherwise the evil Republicans will take away all the free stuff. The strategy is still in place, and nation-wide, today. "If you want free shit rather than earning what you receive, vote Democrat". There are currently 59 million Americans receiving welfare. That's a rather huge portion of the consistent Democrat voting base.

So, you're right. Human people who want to take shit away from other human people ARE voting. And they've voted for an Administration that stated that it wants to expand benefits to the welfare class.
