French strike nationwide over economic crisis
PARIS (Reuters) - Hundreds of thousands of French workers staged a nationwide strike on Thursday to try to force President Nicolas Sarkozy and business leaders to do more to protect jobs and wages during the economic crisis.
The strike, in a country with a strong protest culture, aimed to highlight fears over growing unemployment, discontent over Sarkozy's reluctance to help consumers and resentment toward bankers blamed for the economic slump.
Yeah, guarantee our jobs or we won't work. In this country that'd get your a$$ replaced in a hurry. :mental:

Sarkozy should just threaten to let the Muslims at 'em again. That ended the last protests right quick. The protesters thought the Muslims would join them, they beat the hell out of them instead.

Idiots. Though they are probably more used to hearing it pronounced "Idioten."
