We should start by re-producing and pickles (organic!) Produced in France

Are you sure we stopped? I doubt

Too late elephant, I just made the valve ...

we can't eat french pickles ... we're not canibales anyway ...

we will soon not be able to eat French honey anymore ... European regulations prohibit the marketing of honey if there are GMO flowers and we authorize but GMO ... if we do not succeed in learning the European bee regulations we will buy all our honey to the chinese ... without even being sure that there is no GMO in them too

Any deterministic, mechanical system, very clear, well codified, hyper-regulated, very logical, always ends, if it is a little complex, with its contradictions, in a totally chaotic system !!!
So valid for Europe and any economic system and not just the weather.

Should we boycott the Indian and Malagasy pickles to defend the right of our Poles to pick pickles in France?

All that is very pretty, but the fact of buying abroad maintains a downward pressure on the incomes, which is rather positive ecological question.
Always stigmatizing the Chinese, we forget that they also matter. The fall in their exports managed to put their trade balance in the red: http://lexpansion.lexpress.fr/economie/ ... 86671.html
Finally, at the global level consumption is constantly increasing, and it is quite normal that everyone has access to the riches of the planet. For us, this necessarily means a reduction, given our current ecological footprint. I don't see where the problem is, unless we don't want to let go.

In summary, as long as our ecological footprint is not sustainable the problem is not to maintain our purchasing power, but how to reduce it. Mass unemployment is a means of impoverishing the population, and delaying it by the public deficit only delays the deadline while inflating it, which risks creating a pendulum effect instead of a soft landing.

I do not see the link.

Nantes lily of the valley is picked by Chinese labor (mostly students) but Nantes lily of the valley is (still) a French product.

It was the Unilever group which organized the relocation of pickle culture to India -only for profit-. Jobs in Europe are getting burned ..... (my apologies).

A video. It is "Operation Swiss cornichon", it illustrates well the drift of the current global agro-food system:
