Nothing understood Zac but not serious.

Chirac has already hit VGE, calling to vote ..... Mitterand :D

So as he hates Sarko and ben Bayrou is there, not too badly placed ...

Notice, I have nothing for someone to sink Sarko. With a bit of luck he will not get over it and will avoid shaving because he will not think about it anymore and will no longer lick Bush's balls.

:? Zac wants to say that the RMIstes of Dom Tom are not counted any more in the figures of the job seekers. Because it's "too complicated" : Evil:

We got there long before ... :frown:

Chirac had given instructions to vote for Mitterand in 1981 and he had joined forces with Le Pen in 2002 to oust Jospin from the first Tour ...
Instructions from the elysée to give the signatures to Le Pen then cars burned by the RG to raise the feeling of insecurity ... The disastrous campaign of a Jospin (who was not up to it) made the rest.

This year, the campaign is done "American" in an almost military way. The center of the debates is still not the future of France, the well-being of its inhabitants and the future of the planet. : Evil:

Indeed, no one has even noticed Christine !! Besancenot was missing: he would have set the record straight.


Of course, no journalist or "specialist" has noted it. It's like when the Le Pens affirm that there are 12 million poor French people (not counting foreigners?): They consider any household as "poor" tax on incomes below € 5000 (from memory). And there is no journalist to point out to them that 5000 € of income, it is not that poor .....

The same goes for the content of the programs. Nious, the candidate of the hunters was invited to the 13 p.m. of France2. He says he wants a Marshall Plan for rurality. Is. Instead of bouncing back by asking him "And what does your Marshall Plan consist of?", The journalist goes on to ask him "You are ch'ti and you live in Béarn, is the countryside different in the southwest?" Mind-blowing! And when he threatens with a coup if he does not manage to gather his 500 sponsorships, she is content to smile at him instead of pointing out to him that despite all his efforts to appear civilized, this threat reveals that reputation hunters to be big nags is not that wrong.

What saddens me about this campaign is not so much politicians' tongue-in-cheek language - we're used to it, it's part of the game - as the increasingly blatant inability of journalists to do their job. No wonder we replaced political broadcasts by shows at La Delarue where "real French" - past that there are fake ... - come to whine in front of the candidates.

Thank you for reading this rant.

The calculation of the poverty line:
In France, an individual is officially considered "poor" when his monthly income is less than 645 euros ...

For the rest of the world, let's not talk about it, it's so insignificant…

For Europe, the "relative method":
This calculation method takes into account a country's standard of living. Most often, a fraction of the median income is used: 50% for France (Insee), 60% for the European Union (Eurostat).

Already statistically, there should be fewer poor people in France than for the rest of Europe…

Uh 5000 € it was per year I suppose?

It's 420 € per month ... for a home it's really little ...

For me the real poverty is when you don't have enough income to meet your basic needs (food, housing and hygiene). I mean by that poverty is not being able to afford the last Hdi or Plasma...

When the left and the extreme left offer a smic at 1500 € (net I guess since gross it must not be far) it is surely not for basic needs... : Shock: (moreover I never won that with a bac + 5 but that's another story ...)

The real poor will know what I mean ...

I fear the smic at 1500 € ...

This will mean the same increase in consumer prices and the wages of those above the minimum wage will not be increased. Result, everyone will be at the minimum wage. This will be very beneficial for the "bosses" and the State (VAT receipts and civil servants' salaries which will not be reassessed and therefore which will decrease).

Everyone will be wronged except the "bosses" and the politicians who will vote themselves large increases. : Evil:
