This guy generals.

It could be an option to activate, though.
France is far from a worker’s paradise:
- The last time a slightly leftist government was elected was in 1981, and they turned neoliberal in 1983. Since then, worker’s right are fought by successive governments.
- And successfully so: the last time a national worker’s movement won anything was in 1995 (in 2006 there was a student’s victory though).
- Only 10% of the workers are in an Union, same as in the US.
However, it’s not a hell neither:
- French work 1511 hours by year, indeed under the OECD average (1751) or the Americans (1810) but higher than Germans (1340) who have the reputation to be workaholics.
The reputation is however not without basis:
- French have the highest number of strike days by year for 1000 workers (114), far more than Americans (6). But iy should be noted that not everyone strikes in France, generally the civil servants or employees of State owned firms strike for the others. I did not found the exact number, but for private firms’ employees, the number of strike days on average will be far lesser than 114 (but probably more that 6 ^^). And these hours are not paid, thus a lowering of quality of life.

You still believe in free market? The rules are rigged in favour of shareholders, ethical solutions can’t thrive in this system. America is not free market at all.

Are you forced to take a plane at gunpoint?
Logical solution to this is to use your own means of transportation in order to be sure to be alone if you don’t like children. You can still take a plane if you really want to, but use your own plane. I don’t get the reason to take public means of transportation, since there will always be other people in them anyway.

In French, it’s only the first word and the first noun or verb (Le grand Sommeil). But almost nobody respects this rule anymore.
If it spies on me, if it shows me ads, then it’s not free.
You’re right.
I have electricity, I can plug my computer, the kitchen can wait.
Why do you do that to me now, in the middle of a house renovation? Why?
Communists took part in a few governmental coalitions, but France never experienced communism.
I’m French so I’d eat Kermit too.
It’s sensible :-).
But for me, Christianity is not about being good or bad. It’s about being loved and knowing it.
I often think that, even if God don’t exist, I’m happy I’m Christian. Understood like I understand Christianity, it’s quite freeing…
It’s a great novel, but not a love story.
