Hollande should meet with President Obama to learn the best way to govern. He has us on the edge of our seat waiting for his next move and endorsing everything he says.

A man who wishes to tax at 75%, beyond a certain level, is chosen to lead a nation ?
Oh well see how that goes….
The rich are really going to stay and to stay invested in such a nation ?
Oh well…..
France has the same problem as the US .. The one in charge does not have the basic ability to get the best out of the nation and its individuals.
Tax the rich and lets all be dragged to the same level, smile.
And, no, I am not rich ….

The fools in France have elected a socialist/Marxist, and now America has re-elected the same type of Marxist who has already bankrupted the USA. They both believe in taxing the job makers, so like others have said, we’ll see how that works out. All these taxes will find their way down to the middle class and under. The dumbing down of America continues, and American jobs are being handed to the illegals, because of the obama administration.

There are less than 1,000 people earning more than 1,000,000 dollars per year in France. There are 253,000 in the US. When you make it not worth your while to earn a lot of money, people stop trying. This will be devastating for the US.

It is becoming apparent that consumer math and economics are no longer taught in American schools. Universities push Keynesian economics, at the same time we are witnessing the failure of Keynesian economics in Europe and firsthand in the US. It is quite sad really.
