Worst riot in a decade engulfs Paris; Macron vows action
Gee,, when you want to just loot the people, make them pay their fair share, and the RIOT? Whats wrong with these lemmings, don't they know their only task is to work and turn over their rewards to US? I guess the start of Atlas Shrugged is here now...
Gasoline taxes in France were already $7/gal before the tax increase, and according to one recent report I saw, gas prices in France even with the new tax are lower than they were several years ago. Yet there were no mass protests before now.
Those incited to protest the new tax on them apparently would not mind a tax on others. According to an article today in The Telegraph https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018...
"The protesters see the ex-investment banker as an arrogant 'president of the rich' who is out of touch with ordinary folk struggling to make ends meet.
"A widespread complaint is that the low-income provincial workers of 'forgotten' France can no longer scrape after paying some of the highest tax bills in Europe.
"A large number want a partially-scrapped wealth tax to be reinstated. Yet their demands are incredibly broad and sometimes contradictory.
"Many yellow vests are calling for taxes to be slashed but say more should be spent on public services. The prime minister pointed out that you can’t have both."
This is like an alternative version of the plot in Atlas Shrugged in which mass protests against Dagny Taggert call for socialism.
The course of a nation depends on the dominant philosophical ideas and outlook. Not liking a new tax does not tell anyone what is the right way to organize society by what fundamental standards.
One of the consequences is that there is no "sitting back and relaxing" under collectivism. It only causes more problems and prevents problems from being solved as individual initiative -- goal-directed thinking and individual action -- is stifled. When the collectivism doesn't "work", their premises lead them to more collectivism with more statism to enforce it.
How the collectivist fundamental hatred of the value of the individual manifests itself shows up in the implementation of the various collectivist schemes. The collapse of one scheme has not stopped collectivists from trying another one or becoming more extreme in enforcement as they maintain their false collectivist basic premise.
Rejecting collectivism requires attacking it at its root by identifying and defending the principles of individualism based on a proper ethics of egoism and rationality as a matter of consistent principle. It's not enough to try to convince people that collectivism "doesn't work" by any strictly empirical or shifting "Pragmatist" standard. It requires rational, conceptual understanding. Collectivism doesn't work for anything but sacrificial submission to the collective, which goal as the premise must be rejected for individualism: the necessity and freedom of the individual to think for himself exclusively by reason to choose the values of his own life.
But the way to handle that would be to repeal those taxes, and the socialistic laws which brought those taxes about. And maybe we'd better watch it. We don't want to have a wave of mob violence over here.---And look at what's going on in California, and where they may be headed.
I guess they’re grateful to be living in a western culture. Looters, vandals, arsonist, and protesters around them would likely be shot in an eastern culture.
"Faced with another weekend of destructive protests by the “gilets jaunes”—or yellow vests—Prime Minister Édouard Philippe told a news conference Tuesday the tax hike would be pushed back six months. "
So how is it going to be more acceptable six months from now?
Macron wants the French to drive less and "wait for public transportation or car pool."
Yes, he really said that. The equivalent of "Let them eat cake",. by being fully aware that a huge swath of the population makes a living by driving from remote areas.
This is the result of electing a head of State who has no idea how to govern only parroting what global money leaders instruct him to do.
Macron's approval rating now stands at 23%.
The UN is pushing its agenda about immigration, parallel with the EU's migrant quotas.
The quotas have been voted down before but the bureaucrats are taking another shot at it, no matter how unpopular it is.
His lofty ambition from the beginning was to lead the EU. A genius like him deserves no less, right?
He certainly is pushing his pro-immigrant, globalists, EU-controlled financial institutions agenda with full force. The only problem is that member countries want no part of it. Of course a little bump like that does not bother a ruthless dictator like him: there are new Stalins even though communism is dead, at least officially. The "new" elite in Europe makes sure his teachings are alive and well.

Ask yourself a very simple question, why is there a total & complete MSM blackout re: France, Belgium, Germany, EU riots etc?
When you are awake you can SEE CLEARLY.
FAKE NEWS = ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE.
Q
Still trying to track down more on this.

Q: this is over the clowns rigging the FRENCH ELECTION.
Nobody wanted him in there in the first place. It was stolen from LePen.
Worldwide
UN austerity, Forced immigration, high taxes, stolen elections...you name it.
This is obviously because this setback does not fit the mainstream news media biased and globalist agenda.
If I lived in Western Europe right now, I'd get the heck out even if I had to sneak across borders. They are going to have a war for stupid reasons.
ThanQ. #WWG1WGA

They just don't have a proper philosophy. (But perhaps, with the right propagandists...but who from here would have the time, or the interest, anyway?)
50% voted "No".
The French are hopeless. So are the Germans. They still don't know whom to elect in place of Merkel.
If you recall, Robespierre (he was a lawyer, BTW) in the name of the Jacobin, took control and he "introduced" the "Rein of Terror", for which he gained a dubious notoriety. In modern days ISIS bears similarity, and increasingly mobs and groups of leftist thugs in the US.
Robespierre sanctioned rules by which it was sufficient for your neighbor or anyone to claim you were a traitor to the "cause" resulting in a guillotine event. The French sure can be proud of that.
Robespierre reached a fitting death under the guillotine himself.
He was the first hypocrite of national significance: he was against the death penalty but guillotined countless people, including the King and Queen of France. He was the first looter, too, demanding price controls and distribution of goods.
"Liberte, Egalite, Fraternite" - a useless slogan from that era. The French did not see anything wrong with it when they had Hungary chopped into pieces after WW1.
Macron is dead set against "nationalism", while at the same time the French are the most nationalistic and chauvinistic people you will ever find on this Earth.
A nation of Hypocrisy.

Why are we re-posting links regularly? Isn't there a way to avoid duplication?

You posted about this over a week ago. Since then we have seen the obvious non-reporting from the main stream news media.
This protest involves much of Paris as well as all of France and other nations. I saw the police taking off their helmets to honor non-violent protesters. I saw hundreds of hospital abualances gathered together with their sirens running in protest. I also saw the violent rioters that looted, smashed and burned, reminding us of the KKK, Black Lives Matter and ANTIFA here in the US.
The problems still exist, the protests continue.
Since then the protests escalated.
Wouldn't you think they still belonged to the original post as we keep posting to news as they evolve over time?
I was just curious for the reason that the same topic gets posted several times. Apparently the system will not warn people.
Much info gets lost due to this b/c we can't follow an event over time.
