Ehhhh.... Sometimes, I'm happy to live in a socialist country.
Last time I checked france wasn't socialist, but I guess you should know...
Last time you checked, didn't France have welfare, nationalized health care, about 20% VAT, unscaled taxes that crush the middle and upper-middle class, and a 35-hour work week?
With nationalized railroads, energy, semi-nationalized telecommunications (at last! only SEMI-nationalized! Someday we won't pay local calls, you'll see!), a government so huge that bureaucracy is not only rampant, but the only way to get anything done here.
Oh yeah, but the only real important thing to check is Chirac's political colour, not everyday life. Yea, we truly are a right-wing country!
