Segolene said there would be riots if Sarko wins. Looks like she kept her promise.
Does she feel responsible for fueling these?She offered increased social spendings and subsidizing business. When asked where she'd get the money for that from, she said she'd rise wealth tax, but never gave any calculations.
Reagan quote comes to mind:
"Socialist view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it"I still believe she should've won and be given an opportunity to ruin France, as an economy lesson for her followers.

(...) he has been voting laws to extend French DNA database ... for instance two kids (8 & 11 years old) who stole a toy in a supermarket some weeks ago will have their DNA taken. (...)

Sarkozy is a very bad news indeed. He will not stop the riots: he had all the power to do it in the last 5 years as he was ministry of interior. Instead he is the one triggering it. Plus he has been voting laws to extend French DNA database ... for instance two kids (8 & 11 years old) who stole a toy in a supermarket some weeks ago will have their DNA taken. He is the one who said mankind is genetically conditioned and criminals can be detected since birth. His friends own most of the French media and ask him for advice when hiring journalists. He also threatened some national tv employees to fire them when he will be president. He has an oversized ego and will help his rich friends and himself before thinking of the people. He is Bush best friend in Europe...

(May 6 07, 15:14)I saw tens of thousands in Paris last spring. They were campaigning for a law that didn't take much logic to see would increase unemployment.
The suckers tried to snatch my camera twice.I've got more, but never uploaded the rest.. maybe I'll find some time tomorrow.
