https://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-france-economy-le-maire/france-prepared-to-step-up-spending-cuts-finance-minister-idUKKCN1PM13Tquote:PARIS (Reuters) - French Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire said on Monday that he prepared to step up public spending cuts to finance faster tax cuts if people voiced a desire for lower tax in a nationwide debate underway. Hmm yes. The people are crying out for austerity to fiance taxes for the richest members of society.

The vote would in that case coincide with the European Parliament elections. Oh actually doing the referendum.

So French goons what policies need to be passed to improvement the lot of the French people and not just the 1%. I understand what needs to be rolled back: the repealed wealth tax, the struck down rent controls, the cuts to the welfare state, etc. What needs to come after that?

Sassy Sasquatch posted:I think if you look past those the major point of contention here is the European Union. The way it's setup to favor tax competition between member states and embrace liberalism as the only way forward is the biggest problem we face. Macron's strategy was supposedly to reform the country (read: enforce more neolib' policies) to cozy up to Merkel and gain more leverage at the EU level. Strangely enough the only part of that plan that was enforced was the neolib' reforms and we're no closer to seeing any reform of the EU. As usual the only reason we're not seeing the benefits here is because we didn't go far enough. Thanks for the post Sassy. I have been reading a few articles that touch on the fact the underlining problem is that France (and every other country in the Eurozone) is tied to the much larger German economy via monetary union and since it has zero control over it's currency it has zero fiscal tools at its disposal. Such as devaluing or deficit spending to provide stimulus (like when Brussels vetoed the Italian budget).
