Man, Allas, you sure don't seem to know much about the way France works.
1) A degree of disarray (and you'd have to actually believe what you hear on Fox News to think it was any worse than that) is as French as foie gras.
2) If street protests didn't give French governments serious pause, France'd still be in its first republic (look it up).
3) The French shutting the fuck up?
Unlike Americans, the French aren't taking the globalized race to the bottom lying down.
The greedheads will probably ultimately prevail, as ever, but in France they're being given a run for their money. Three cheers.
