France Riots-Liberal Policies Don't Work

[BWG]

The facts are in post #12 (Urethra Franklin).

Someone said in another thread, talking about good news from Iraq, that they would rather hear it from 'boots on the ground' rather than through the media. Well, it sounds like Urethra Franklin has her 'boots' firmly planted on France's terra firma. She's experienced not having to wait 5 years for a job. She likes free health care, free education, excellent public transport and state pensions and unemployment benefit that you can actually live off and says it's working just fine. Why do people have this funny idea that our way of life is the only way to live. I hear people say, look at all the people trying to immigrate to the US. I say, look at all of the people not trying to immigrate to the US. Believe it or not people live happy and successful lives in other countries.

If you're a pro-lifer than by default you are dishonest, according to steen.

 

[steen]

I didn't go to his defense. I went on offense against liberalism.

Ah, so when you object to his lies being challenged then....?

You pinko!

Black-shirt.

And I only read the first page of this thread before joining it, as I do with all threads. I ain't gonna read the entire thread!

But the issue is the VERY FIRST POST. So you must have read Aquapup's lies, then.

Aquapub started the thread? I really don't remember.

 

[Donkey1499]

Now, THAT is a lie. :2razz:

U said in post #21 that pro-lifers MUST be dishonest. What does pro-lifing and honesty have to do with each other anyways? More leftist :spin: ?

 

[steen]

Huh? Oh, the ignorance. You obviously are clueless about what the "Black-shirts" were? Sheesh :roll:

Aquapub started the thread? I really don't remember.

Ah, MORE "pro-life "forgetting."

 

[Donkey1499]

Now YOU are the Jackass! Forgetfulness and Pro-lifing have nothing in common. I've got other things on my mind besides who writ what! Don't be a fool, Steen.

 

[KCConservative]

Huh? Oh, the ignorance. You obviously are clueless about what the "Black-shirts" were? Sheesh :roll:

Ah, MORE "pro-life "forgetting."

Being pro life means you have a poor memory? Is that it, steen? Good Lord, son, now that is a stretch.

Well, I'm pro-life and I just want to say that...I mean, uh.....that......what I'm trying to say is.........what were we talking about?:3oops:

The real reason Chirac walked out of the EU Summit :nahnah:


French President Jacques Chirac, flanked by his foreign and finance ministers, quit the summit chamber on Thursday when Ernest-Antoine Seilliere, head of a European business lobby, switched from French to English during a speech to EU leaders.

Chirac missed Seilliere urging leaders to "resist national protectionism in order to avoid a negative domino effect" in the EU's internal market, a veiled criticism of France and others who have tried to block cross-border takeovers.

After the summit, NewsRoom101 talked to one of Chirac's aides, Michelle Merde, who disputed that the french delegation's walkout was related to Seilliere's use of English.

"No, no, no. President Chirac loves the English language. He simply stepped out because someone had set his car on fire."

Chirac is an idiot. But then he's a conservative, so it's what you'd expect. That's why people are protesting against his vile government and this brutal policy. The French will re-elect a socialist govenrment and find sanity once more.

 

[millsy]

Labor unions in France have helped orchestrate riots because the government is trying to make it possible to fire people without a reason. In America, when a company can't afford or doesn't need an employee, they can simply lay them off. We call this normal. French liberals (and American ones) are calling this move "ultra-conservative."

When companies can no longer afford to employ someone, it is better to let them lay them off than to needlessly force the company into bankruptcy. Which costs more jobs?

Europe is in the death grip of obscenely expensive Socialist programs and anti-business laws like the one they are trying to reverse...to create more jobs. It currently takes an average of 5 years for French college grads to find a job.

Socialism doesn't work.

Actually they've been largely peaceful protests. Not a whole lot different from the protests in LA regarding the new conservative immigration proposals.

Chirac was a con? Hahahah the irony, he should've got along perfectly with Bush then? What's up with that?

1) Inflammatory, ad hominem, crap.

2) Vile, brutal? We are talking about letting companies lay people off to avoid leaving the country or going bankrupt (which would cost far MORE jobs) which they wouldn't even be in such dyer need to do if Frances obscenely expensive Socialist system wasn't bleeding them dry in the first place.

What you are calling vile and brutal is standard practice for any system with a functional economy. I'm surprised France has made it this long sodomizing businesses the way they do.

 

[aquapub]

Norway has no riots-Liberal policies work.

This would be the third time you have intentionally misrepresented my point AFTER having it re-explained. Dig that hole deeper, Captain Honesty. :roll:

 

[aquapub]

Revived from the basement I see? So please, show the facts and your sources Aqua

I have many. Name what you want verified...

Still waiting.

 

[aquapub]

Is that right? Seemed to me that Kelzie was already pretty annoyed at the thread to begin with with a specific warning to Aqua.

Of course, what you aren't mentioning here is the fact that her interest in the thread started when I was responding to unprovoked name-calling by Che..."Fascist," I think, was what he called me...for stating the obvious...before I ever said a word to the guy.

Funny how intolerant the "pro-diversity" crowd is huh?

 

[RightinNYC]

Because "conservative" by French/Urethra standards places chirac right around Ted Kennedy by American standards.

Largely peaceful?

France was in a State of Emergency for 3 months over the winter. Three months.

Estimates at the damage done by the rioting was over 220 million Euros. Almost NINE THOUSAND cars were torched. There were almost 3,000 arrests, and 136 Police and Firefighters were injured.

PARIS - Demonstrators hurled chunks of concrete at police, who responded by filling a picturesque Paris square with tear gas Thursday as protest marches over a contested jobs law erupted into violence.

Tensions heated up on Paris’ verdant Esplanade des Invalides, with riot police using tear gas on rowdy protesters who threw grapefruit-sized chunks of concrete at police officers. Some of the 23,000 marchers turned on each other, beating and kicking.

Plumes of smoke billowed skyward as youths set trash bins on fire, and vandals smashed glass bus shelters and windows at several shops.

Same things I've been asking for since the start of your last doomed thread, the very claims you stated in your first post.
You have not shown how liberal policies are not working.
Show me credible sources that make such a claim.

 

[jfuh]

Because "conservative" by French/Urethra standards places chirac right around Ted Kennedy by American standards.

I'm not going to argue one bit about this. However by today's standards Nixon was very much a liberal as well. This only shows that the American ideology has shifted significantly to the right. Something I blame the liberals of this country for.

All the lies in your post for starters, incl. the flagrant lie that these French "riots" are evidence that liberal policies don't work.
