Mr. Macron decided to push his programs directed at economic reform and adjustment. As he turned out his programs of pension adjustments, labor unions and others took offense at this idea. Mr. macron stated that managing 42 different pension plans was costly and inefficient and his new plan would alter the pensions into a more uniform program. Hmmmmm. What the government giveth the government better not take away or we'll go on strike. And strike they have.
A general strike is sweeping the nation effectively bringing the country to a standstill. Transportation networks have halted all operations: trains and planes are not currently in operation. Union workers have extended the stoppage until at least Tuesday, several days from now. This occurs during the cold of early winter and the approaching holiday season. Can this really be happening to the liberal/socialists of progressive France? My, my. What they need is a dose of recession, perhaps a dose of.......................................reality?
Maybe Mr. Macron is just rounding up some publicity for his administration? Maybe not. Time will tell.
Tahoma will be watching these unsettling developments. What of Notre Dame?
Lake Tahoe, California's Alpine playground, is anchored on the west shore by Homewood/Tahoma, straddling two counties:Placer and El Dorado. The mayor of Tahoma posts information related to the area and items of interest to residents and visitors alike. Its goal is to be informative, humorous, and timely. Hope you enjoy the site.
