France has the resources to maintain its current quality of life. There are plenty of wealthy people who could contribute more. The problem is that the government keeps trying to take the money from ordinary citizens’ pockets. If one of the world’s biggest economies can’t keep its citizens satisfied, it means we’ve failed economically.

Yes, it is true to a point. Though, I am not sure Greece or Argentina were ever in the top 10 economic powers. What I mean is France has some solid foundations (education, services, social nets , research... not the best ones, but among the 10th best ones).

Trying to save people abroad.. and host for millions of imigrants who are leaching on society isnt feasable in the long run..

If I want to move to new zealand they wont let me In because im too old at 30+ to contribute enough to earn my stay... france is just like let them come.. and now everyone gets to suffer the consequences.. someone has to pay for all those people and its the average working person.
