Drug shortage in France getting worse and worse!
Drug shortage in France getting worse and worse!Insolentiae – Apr 25, 2024
The collapse of West Korea.
Today I'm going to come out.
I'm from the left.
I am totally, viscerally left-wing. Are you going to tell me what this has to do with the shortage of medicines and Charles’ “leftness”?
You know why ? Because I am very sensitive to the suffering of others. We call this empathy. I believe that when one of us falls, we must reach out to them. I sincerely, viscerally, think that what fundamentally defines a society and its degree of advancement of “civilization” would say for certain, is its way of taking care of the weakest, the most fragile, the “defenseless”. So, yes, I am left-wing.
However, I am not a socialist.
“The problem with socialism is that one day you end up having spent all of other people’s money.”
But even more serious...
“There is no such thing as socialism without danger. If it's safe it's not socialism. And if it is socialism it is not without danger. The path of socialism drags us down, toward less freedom, less prosperity, lowers us toward more confusion, more failure. If we follow him to his destination, we will lead this country to ruin. »
This is how we no longer have medicines, that we, in France, in this “developed” France of the year 2024, this France which is waging war against Russia with a Professor Trouposol at its head and a “ Mozart” of finance at Bercy who wants to bring the Russian economy to its knees, we no longer have medicine in our pharmacies.
It's the shortage.
Socialism is always scarcity.
It always ends in tragedy.
Always.
Egalitarianism always leads to ruin and dictatorship.
“We believe they should be people. We are all unequal. No one, thank God, is the same as anyone else, contrary to what most socialists can claim. We believe that everyone has the right to be different but for us every human being is of equal importance. »
I am left-wing because I sincerely believe that every human being is equally important, but I am not a socialist because I believe in the necessity of inequalities to maintain freedom and diversity!
Equality is a dictatorship that crushes all diversity and all freedom. If we are all equal then... we are all the same, and when we are all the same, there is no more freedom, no more difference.
So I am left-wing but not socialist.
I am not a socialist, because this ersatz political doctrine is bogus.
I am not a socialist, because they confuse egalitarianism and equality of rights and duties.
I am not a socialist, because they confuse assistance with just solidarity and necessary mutual aid.
I am not a socialist, because they deny difference and freedom in the name of the dictatorship of egalitarianism and false social justice.
I am not a socialist, because they think that the “magical” State, with “magical” thinking and “magic” money can fantasize a world and abstract itself from reality.
I am not a socialist, because reality always comes back at a gallop and when reality returns it is not the rich socialists in the portfolio on the right and who live on the left bank who suffer. No, it's the small ones, the low-ranking ones, the fragile ones.
I am not a socialist, because they are generous with other people's money without shame and never with their own, refusing true generosity for themselves and imposing it on others.
I am not a socialist, because they think that they can, in a world open to all, in a world where there is the free movement of goods and merchandise, regulate and fix the prices of medicines.
They think these imbeciles, because they are “the State” that they can say to the pharmaceutical laboratories, “I buy your box for 1 euro” and the Lab responds, no problem, I will sell it to the Hungarians , because over there, at 10 euros, “Hungarian is still not expensive”… or to Czechs with provisions and not to bad checks from the French State.
So we don't have any more medicine.
We have a shortage of medicines.
Not because the drug factories are no longer producing.
There is no shortage of medicines in Hungary or the Czech Republic, former comrade countries of the well-socialist republics. They spent 70 years there in socialist bliss.
There is a shortage of medicines in France.
France, this country so brilliant, so wonderful, which became… West Korea.
In West Korea we can no longer get treatment and yet it all costs a crazy amount of money.
So after 40 years of socialism and a socialist administered economy we are in the wall.
We are ruined.

2024 Olympic Games: great prospects!
2024 Olympic Games: great prospects!Hashtable – Apr 22, 2024
Less than 100 days before the next Olympic Games in Paris, we can clearly feel the excitement and joy gripping the entire country.
The capital and its inhabitants are clearly rejoicing in the festivities and never has the word “Olympic events” found such a beautiful resonance with what Parisians are currently going through, who are now enjoying every minute of anticipation of these future great moments.
Future great moments which must be carefully prepared and which have already been the opportunity, in particular for the mayor of Paris, to visit the locations of the various events in which we find – quite conveniently – Papeete, this small town which borders Paris and which will notably host the surfing events.
With a small plane trip (this is close to 15.000 kilometers) for which carbon compensation has not been mentioned - but which we can be sure has been carried out as Anne Hidalgo is obviously eco-conscious - and a small bill for the Parisian taxpayer of around 60.000 euros, the installations could be verified...ah no, ultimately, the trip triggering itching for the opposition, the Parisian taxpayers, part of the press and quite a few French people in general , the mayor will not have pushed to the site of the surfing event.
All this will lead us a few months later to a small investigation and searches to collect evidence of a possible illegal taking of interests and embezzlement of public funds (oh, gosh) which we have no doubt will allow to completely cleanse the honor of the municipal team.
The preparation does not stop there since, let us remember, it also includes the furtive removal of the bulky students who take bread from the athletes' accommodation: the expulsions have begun. Phew, the place is freed, the athletes are relieved, Olympism is breathing.
Likewise, deportation, the discreet movement of hundreds of migrants and other vagrants outside the city and their relocation, always at the expense of the taxpayer, almost everywhere in the rest of the country, is going rather well even if certain mayors (that of Orléans for example) are offended in a somewhat green way. Phew, the place is cleaned, the organizers relax, Olympism is smiling again.
But what would this beautiful ceremony be without great organization and above all solid security guaranteeing everyone to enjoy a show like no other?
And precisely, in this matter, we already know that everything will be done to obtain a level of security for individuals. Like never before... or almost, since we will finally put back in place what was a real success in 2021 and 2022, namely providing Parisians and spectators with a solid little QR code during their travels (the self- certificate should not take long now).
We are already delighted to know that an internet platform will soon be available, which will give all Parisians concerned the opportunity to enter a whole bunch of relevant information on their comings and goings, and we wish Olympic courage to all our seniors whose mastery of digital tools is more than sufficient to guarantee that these small QR codes will be correctly distributed.
And frankly, who is not already looking forward to a return of controls and police patrols in part of the capital? This will ensure the legendary security of Parisian streets at least during the games period. The residents concerned will love it!
Finally, all these considerations would not be complete without mentioning that all this will take place with almost total control of costs and expenses.
Indeed, when we read the article devoted to the costs of these Olympic Games, it appears that the calculation of the total is particularly precise: between the initial budget, the current budget, the overruns, the State guarantees, the various expenditure and revenue items, we are completely reassured about what will inevitably be the final responsibility of the taxpayer.
But if.
It appears, however, that the total should oscillate around 11 billion euros according to different estimates, of which 3, 4 or 5 billion would remain the responsibility of the taxpayers pardoned by the State according to Moscovici, the current president of the Court of Auditors, all for an initial budget of 3,8 billion euros, already higher than the 3,2 billion in the application file. We can only admire the truly diabolical precision of these figures and of the official body responsible for the Accounts: for a total of 11 billion, that gives us 7 billion in small plump overruns, and 3 to 5 billion euros of Public money gives us an envelope which varies easily by more than 60% on overruns of more than 100%. It's pretty.
Rest assured, however: the journalistic propaganda teams are already on deck to remind us that even with a bill of 11 billion euros (which the entire French Nation can very well afford in these times of growth and Macronian opulence), these games will probably be among the least expensive in recent history.
But if.
In fact, we even wonder, in the face of these modest figures, why we are sparing so much, even to the point that the Île-De-France region has, for example, refused to cover the travel costs of 200.000 accredited people (athletes, officials, journalists…) even though it had been courteously requested by the official Games committee and this budget only represents a little less than 10 million euros.
There is no denying that this event oozes millimeter precision and cost control down to the smallest item of expenditure! This puts us in the best position to imagine what the organization of the events themselves, of the opening and closing ceremonies, could give, and which suggests an exceptional level of quality for safety and security. support for players, spectators and all trades around this event. The English fans will love it!
No doubt, it will go very, very well. Everything will even be Olympic, for sure.

Attal, Le Maire, Cazenave, the Shearers-Guns of your savings
Insolentiae – Apr 19, 2024
Protect yourself !
This information is essential for you… well for your taxes!
In case you haven't figured it out, France will not go bankrupt.
France is strong thanks to you, thanks to us, and to be more precise thanks to your money, your savings.
The HCFP considers the government's deficit reduction plan not credible
The HCFP is the High Council of Public Finances, the body of the Court of Auditors and which estimated in an opinion that the government's objective of a return to a public deficit below 3% of gross domestic product (GDP) in 2027 “lack of credibility” given the current deterioration of public finances and economic growth forecasts!
No kidding. The HCFP does not go so far as to say that we are led by Mozarts of finance who play wrong notes and a bad score, but almost.
The institution warns of the lack of coherence of this new trajectory. Its first president, Pierre Moscovici, in an exclusive interview with Le Figaro, judges that the executive's promises lack credibility, particularly on reducing spending...
Moscovici. It is unfavorably known to my poultry police services (chickens).
For years my crystal chickens have been accumulating a file as thick as your arm on Pierre Moscovici. Minister of the economy who is failing and finances which are slipping, comrade European commissioner, then president of the lower court of accounts which are not going well. Let us not forget his love for the beautiful Marie-Charline and her cat who Moscovici gave her bath. You notice that the latter had the exquisite taste of having a cat named Hamlet and not a cat, which will avoid many saucy comments. In short, there's no shortage of mentions in this mamamouchi's locker!
So let's listen to these last words about this Mozart-style management.
“We cannot reduce public spending so massively without having an effect on economic growth. A coherent scenario would therefore require changing either the macroeconomic forecast or that of public finances. »
There we agree. From a technical point of view, there is a large shell in the soup.
But the best is when Le Figaro questions him about what should be done... and then we feel the years of experience in nothing coming to the surface
“We must find room for maneuver. To do this, we need political will, courage, because it is undoubtedly unpopular, intelligence to define economies that do not harm essential growth, and pedagogy. »…
Here we are.
The essential educational effort.
When people talk to us about pedagogy, we are going to have problems!
You understand I suppose, since we have lived in Macronie.
In Macronie, which is a great democracy, that of West Korea, we always demonstrate pedagogy before sending you the Brav-M and the CRS if you have not understood the pedagogy. Phase 1, the pedagogy which explains why you must obey. Yellow Vests? Pedagogy then flashballs. Pension movement? First teaching of course, then flashballs. Vaccines ? First education (all vaccinated, all protected) then…health pass.
Here we are talking about money. Of debts. Deficits.
So pedagogy is about explaining to you why you are going to have to make a lot of effort. Work more, earn less, work longer, pension smaller. Fewer hospitals and obviously paying more taxes. To make you pay more taxes… pedagogy. Then after the automatic taxation since you will agree.
Here you do not risk being blinded by a flashball, rest assured, it is just your savings that will be cut, your income that will be blinded, and you who will suffer from a significant fiscal hernia at level L1,L2 , L3, L4, L5 but also L6, 7, 8, 9, 10… it’s crazy how many vertebrae we have!
The inevitable fiscal hernia…
“Given the deterioration of the public balance recorded in 2023 compared to the forecast of the LPFP [public finance programming law] and lower growth hypotheses, the return of the public deficit below three points of GDP in 2027 would imply a massive structural adjustment between 2023 and 2027,” points out the HCFP.
“The High Council considers that this forecast lacks credibility: while such an effort in spending has never been made in the past, its documentation remains incomplete at this stage and its realization requires the establishment of rigorous governance », he adds.
And when a spending reduction effort of this magnitude has never been done, know that there is no reason to be done this time.
So, and this is a logical resolution, of a logical problem. If we are not able to make this effort to reduce spending, we will do, well, we will do the only easy thing they have known how to do since I was born in this country... raise taxes.
Let us continue the logical and rational reasoning.
They will therefore cut savers a little more.
Let's make an analogy with sheep. Animal species well known to all French taxpayers.
To shear a sheep, it must not move!
If you apply this principle to French taxpayers, you can deduce quite easily what is not moving or is difficult. Real estate for example obviously. So we can already have a good idea of what is going to be taxed more.
This is the first good news.
Anticipate future mowing, with which mower, and who will be the mower…

Despite sanctions, Russia repays its debt
Despite sanctions, Russia repays its debtInternational Network - Apr 15, 2024
While the Macron-Attal-Lemaire trio is desperately seeking a few tens of billions of euros to complete their 2024 budget, a year in which the absolute historical record for the French budget deficit could well be broken, the Russian executive, despite the sanctions which are applied to it, repays its debt, and found $54 billion in budget surplus over the last twelve months to do so.
Let's summarize: the French debt today is 3200 billion euros, or $3425 billion.
Some sources even speak of $3690 billion
The Russian debt was only $358 billion on April 1, 2023. One year of war later, on April 1, 2024, this Russian debt was reduced to $304 billion.2
Russia therefore still has a debt capacity that our country no longer has, on the verge of collapse and bankruptcy.
For the French Mozarts of politics and finance who claimed to collapse the Russian economy (Lemaire) or put it in a state of insolvency (Macron), the slap in the face is gigantic and we impatiently await the verdict of the IMF and that of the rating agencies which should fall in a few days. But don't panic, the mainstream media are there to hide the problem and calm our pain with anesthesia before the European elections, in order to limit electoral damage. They will talk to us about the Paris 2024 Olympics, floods, climate change and as little economy as possible...

France bankrupt? Not as long as you have savings!
Insolentiae – Apr 09, 2024
3 billion euros is the state debt. Considerable, you might say, and you are right. It is enormous. But is it serious?
Obviously it's serious and it can't last forever. But sometimes, even if it's not forever, it's a long time!
And it may last longer than we all think or anticipate.
Is France at risk of bankruptcy?
Obviously she risks bankruptcy.
In reality France is already bankrupt.
We have been spending since 1974, that is to say for 50 years, much more than what “we earn”. And yet the debt continues to rise!
The markets continue to finance us.
So… the question is why the markets continue to lend to France when we are managing like hell? Well, not us, our “Mozarts” of finance.
The answer is simple and is essentially due to two reasons.
The first, if things became really serious, the ECB would intervene as a last resort, buy French debt to avoid bankruptcy and the explosion of the euro zone. This is the “Draghi doctrine” of the President of the ECB who in 2011 declared that the euro was irreversible, that it would do whatever it took and that that would be enough.
The second reason is that the French are rich! Very rich. We squeal, we complain and many are indeed poor. But despite the taxes and the level of taxes in this country, the French are very, very economical. Finally, those who are not unsuccessful baskets and in reality, there is a potentially immense taxable windfall. In 2023 the savings rate in France will be 17.3%! Yes, you read correctly. 17.3%! It's colossal, it's considerable. For comparison, in the United States the savings rate is only 4.3%! I don't know if you realize what that means. On average, French people who know nothing about economics operate with credit budgets and at the end of the year they spend 17,3% less than what they earned. The “Mozarts” of finance who govern us, all these pretentious and well-educated graduates who take us for imbeciles, “people who are nothing” and these “brilliant” types end each budget year having spent more than 40% more than they earned and made deficit after deficit.
The heritage of the French? 20 billion euros!
While the Mozarts are plunging 20 feet of deficit under the sea, the simple French are cushioning and holding 000 billion euros in assets at the last count in 20.052.
“After a strong increase in 2021 (+9,1%), France's net wealth increased by 5,6% in 2022, to 20.052 billion euros, according to an INSEE study published this Wednesday. This corresponds to the difference between the value of financial and non-financial assets (58.977 billion euros) and that of the liabilities of economic agents (households, businesses and public administrations). »
And yes, minus the Mozarts' liabilities, we still have more than 20 billion euros! Hahahahahahahahaha. Fire them all and put my chickens in Bercy, even a goat would do better than all those who have followed one another for 000 decades.
As for the net financial wealth of households in 2022, it was… 4 billion euros!!
And yes, my friends, France is rich! Very rich.
Then France will go bankrupt... when the French have been ruined!Set Featured Image
You must understand that before the country's bankruptcy, the country's solvency will be considered by the crazy, the incompetent and the Mozarts who pull the levers, as strategic. Like the best interests of the nation.
Your assets are the guarantee of our solvency.
Finally, I could almost say that the French State has pledged your money, your savings, your assets to the markets.
There will only be bankruptcy in France when household savings have also been consumed by our apprentice sorcerers in the Palaces.
Will France go bankrupt is therefore the wrong question…
At this stage of the reasoning, it should normally become clear to you that, contrary to what we hear, the question is not whether France will go bankrupt.

A young Russian gives her version of Edith Piaf's Ode to Love
A young Russian gives her version of Edith Piaf's Ode to LoveQactus - 08 Apr 2024
France: A young Russian had already given a singing lesson to France with her version of Edith Piaf's Hymn to Love
We are with "The Voice Kids Russia", Edith Piaf - 'The Hymn to Love' and France recently announced that singer Aya Nakamura would be approached to perform Edith Piaf's Hymn to Love during the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympic Games in 2024. However, a young Russian had given France a real singing lesson with her own interpretation of this iconic song.
In a video that has gone viral on social networks, the young girl sings the Hymn to Love by Edith Piaf with a powerful and moving voice. Her performance is all the more impressive as she speaks French perfectly, which adds an extra dimension to her performance.
In comparison, Aya Nakamura's performance, which was criticized for its lack of emotion and poor pronunciation, seems pale. The young Russian, for her part, was able to convey all the emotion and passion of the song, leaving the spectators speechless and some in tears.
This video also raises questions about France's choice to select Aya Nakamura to perform this iconic song. Although the singer is popular with young people, her performance does not seem up to the occasion. The young Russian, for her part, shows that talent and passion can come from anywhere in the world.

15 French soldiers, 000% of troops lost in 85 days of fighting!
Insolentiae – Apr 06, 2024
“Warfighter” exercise 15 French soldiers engaged, 000 killed or wounded, 12% of troops lost in 700 days of fighting!
You know how much good I think of our professor Trouposol's desire to send our soldiers to have holes in their skins in the Dardanelles.
You also know that in our world, everything is simulated. Everything has to be counted, everything has to be prepared and everything has to be modelled.
We know with relative precision how much a pandemic will cost as a percentage of GDP and the “Event 201” exercise, which simulated a global pandemic based on coronavirus, gave results very close to reality.
So, we have to dig a little into high-intensity exercises to get an idea of the damage, our means and what it could be.
Warfighter Exercise April 2021
“A French intervention force made up of two combined arms brigades, or 15 soldiers, is engaged. After 000 days of bitter fighting, 10 were killed, 1 wounded, or 700 per day. This is the outcome of the Warfighter exercise conducted in the United States in April 11. In addition to the feedback on interoperability with the American and British ally, the sequence made it possible to point out the significant number of wounded to be treated in the event of high intensity conflict” (source Le Point here).
This is what a massive French commitment of ground troops in Ukraine could look like. We would initially have difficulty exceeding 15 men and therefore effectively two modern NATO-size brigades.
These two brigades would last 10 days and then… nothing more. All dead (or injured).
In this simulation we arrive at 1 dead and 700 injured (and that's not just a flipped nail). This makes 11 soldiers lost or out of action, or 000% of the initial troops in… 12 days.
You understand why the Ukrainian army is having difficulty holding out its war over the long term.
As you know, it is impossible to talk about Ukrainian losses without being accused of pro-Russian propaganda...

Verbal escalation between Paris and Moscow, lucrative business
Verbal escalation between Paris and Moscow, lucrative businessThe Quebec 7s - April 05, 2024
In this period of economic crisis which is cruelly hitting France, the Macron government needs to create a climate of war or fear of war to require workers to participate in the phantasmagoric “war effort”, through additional socio-economic sacrifices.
In a previous article entitled “What are Macron's warlike gesticulations and warlike rantings for?”, after emphasizing that the French army did not have the human and military resources to carry out a high-intensity military offensive against Russia, let alone of international legal legitimacy, I concluded my analysis with these words: “In reality, Putin has become Macron’s best ally. It serves as a bulwark to wage its class war against the French proletariat, as a scarecrow to justify and legitimize the authoritarian hardening of governance. To ensure France’s militarist and fascist transition.”
While Macron blusters by threatening to send troops to Ukraine to fight big Russian capital, France continues to widely open French borders to Russian companies and to do business with Russia. We remember that the Minister of the Economy, Bruno Le Maire, declared: “We are going to cause the collapse of the Russian economy” through Western economic sanctions. If there has been an economic collapse, it is that of the French economy.
For a minister determined to torpedo Russia's economy, it is surprising to learn from reliable sources that he is authorizing several companies to continue their trade with Russian companies. The French bourgeoisie is not near hypocrisy. It's not an imposture.
This is the case with the agrochemical factories of the Boréalis group, which has production sites in Austria and Germany, but above all three factories in France: near Rouen, near Melun and in Alsace. Thousands of tonnes of Russian ammonia continue to arrive at Boréalis' French factories, notably that of Rouen. As a reminder, Russia is the world's leading exporter of ammonia, which, curiously, does not seem to be subject to European sanctions packages. Because, according to specialists, this raw material constitutes an important issue for Europe, and therefore for France.
In a recent report, Greenpeace revealed how the French company Framatome, a subsidiary of EDF, and the German company Siemens Energy continue their business with the Russian state nuclear company Rosatom. “France is lobbying fiercely at the European level in order to protect the interests of the nuclear industry and continue its nuclear trade with Rosatom,” underlines Greenpeace.
While, on the diplomatic front, Macron theatrically raises the threat of war against Russia, on the economic front, the real sinews of war, that is to say the valorization of capital, the French company Framatome , peacefully signs a joint venture with the Russian giant Rosatom to manufacture nuclear fuel in Germany. This cooperation between the two giants arouses indignation and protest in Germany. Indeed, the agreement concluded between the French Framatome and the Russian Rosatom fuels controversy in Germany, where the factory is located in which Framatome will assemble, under Russian license, the fuel intended to power nuclear reactors. Thousands of German opponents expressed their anger against this Franco-Russian cooperation, experienced as a betrayal, even a dagger planted in Germany's back by France.
In addition to the agrochemical and nuclear sectors, France and Russia are continuing their economic idyll in the field of wine, particularly that of fine wines. According to exclusive customs documents published by the economic site Challenges, on March 16, 2024, great Burgundy wines were delivered during the years 2022 and 2023 to Moscow, bypassing the European embargo. In economic matters, the credo of the Macron regime is: what matters is the bottle (the State, pseudo-democratic or dictatorial), as long as we have the intoxication (of money)!

France’s sovereign debt: call a spade, a spade
International Network - March 31, 2024
The objective of the finance law for 2024 was to reduce the deficit to 4,4% of GDP (after 4,9% in 2023), the government had decided to make savings amounting to 10 billion euros by reducing the 2024 budget. However, despite all these announcements, the deficit seems once again higher than expected and greater than 5% in 2023.
It has been more than 50 years since France's budget has been in balance:
At the end of the last quarter of 2023, our country's public debt amounted to 3.088,2 billion euros according to INSEE, an increase of 41,3 billion euros (after an increase of 34,5 billion euros). euros in the previous quarter).
The 2024 finance law passed thanks to 49.3 and therefore under the sole responsibility of the current majority provided that the State's forecast financing requirement would reach 295,8 billion euros, mainly due to a budget deficit of 144,4. 156,4 billion euros and 2024 billion euros of medium and long-term debt amortization maturing in XNUMX.
And the EU in all this
France is also well above the average deficit of the twenty-seven (82,6%) of the EU, with a debt which reaches 111,9% of its GDP, or more than 3 billion euros. . Conversely, Estonia (000%) and Bulgaria (18,2%) currently have the lowest debt rates within the EU.
However, some will tell me that all this is linked to management from the right or the left. Are you sure? this diagram shows the opposite:
Today, at the end of March 2024, Bercy admits that for 2024 the deficit will be 5,6% of GDP instead of 4,9%, therefore increased by some 20 billion euros, calling into question its reduction trajectory.
Comparing cabbages to carrots
So if France's debt is equal to the cumulative difference in state budgets and therefore a difference between expenditure and revenue collected thanks to taxes, why then compare our deficit or our debt to the nation's GDP.
Isn't it stupid to put cabbages versus carrots into the equation?
Indeed, GDP, or gross domestic product at market prices, aims to measure the wealth created by all agents, private and public, on a national territory during a given period. It represents the final result of the production activity of resident producing units. In short, the French state does not dispose of it as it wishes. So let's be more rigorous and compare the deficit and debt to our tax revenues.
Tax revenues
Here are the figures for state revenue by type of tax in France for the year 2023:
Gross tax revenue: 470,6 billion euros
Value added tax (VAT): 176,3 billion euros
Income tax: 113,4 billion euros
Corporate tax: 86,8 billion euros
Registrations, stamps, other contributions and indirect taxes: 40,2 billion euros
Other direct taxes and similar taxes: 31,4 billion euros
Internal consumption tax on energy products: 18,3 billion euros
Other direct taxes collected by issuing tax rolls: 2,4 billion euros
Social contribution on profits: 1,6 billion euros
In sum, the total net revenue of the general budget (after deduction of reimbursements and reliefs) is projected at 349,4 billion euros in 2023, with an increase of 5,2% compared to the previous year.
It is important to note that these figures are revised evaluations for the year 2023 (source: https://www.insee.fr/fr/statistiques/2381416)
All this therefore means that if we devoted all of our tax revenue to repaying the debt we would need: €3088,2 billion / €349,4 billion = 8 years and 10 months to repay it by depriving ourselves of all services of State.

A spectacular increase of 31% in baptisms
A spectacular increase of 31% in baptismsThe Media in 4-4-2 - March 30, 2024
Young French people are turning to the Catholic Church: a spectacular increase of 31% in baptisms.
France is experiencing a significant increase in baptisms among young people, with a 31% increase in catechumens compared to last year. Discover how the Catholic Church responds to this spiritual thirst among young French people.
The Catholic Church in France is experiencing a significant increase in baptisms among adults and adolescents. According to a survey by the Conference of Bishops of France (CEF), the number of catechumens increased by 31% compared to last year, with 7 applicants for baptism. This trend is not a simple rebound effect after Covid, but rather a spiritual thirst among young people.
Young people aged 18 to 25 now represent 36% of newly baptized people, while among adolescents between 11 and 17 years old, the survey recorded 5 baptisms in 025 dioceses, an increase of 68% on average. This vitality is illustrated by the presence of 50 young French people at the last World Youth Day (WYD) in Lisbon.
The president of the CEF, Éric de Moulins-Beaufort, emphasizes that in his diocese of Reims, catechumens have increased from 20 to 73 in five years. However, he questions the ability of the Church to support all these newcomers in a society where 80% of young people have not received religious education.
The CEF also observes a significant increase in baptized people from families without religion, or a quarter of the total. This trend shows that France is moving away from secularism where the Church is mistreated to join the cross of Christ.
Covid was decisive in pushing citizens towards the Church. Western democracy no longer inspires young people's dreams and the lack of reference points in a society dominated by wokism remains too destabilizing. As was the case with Russia which found its faith after the USSR, French youth are returning to their Christian roots to find answers to their existential questions. The holy spirit is at work!

More and more people are being monitored in France
More and more people are being monitored in FranceBastamag - March 21, 2024
More than 20 people in France are currently the subject of surveillance by the intelligence services. The techniques are increasingly sophisticated and do not only target terrorism or serious crime.
“In March 2022, we discovered by chance that a camera was filming the entrance to my father's house. It was a device, hidden behind a camouflage net, which was intended to identify people and vehicles,” recalls Julien Le Guet, spokesperson for the Bassines non merci collective, which fights against plans to mega-basins in the Marais Poitevin.
“It was truly a milestone event. A lot of people in the area said to themselves “oh yeah, we’re there”. » In January 2023, Julien Le Guet's mechanic also found a GPS beacon hidden under the left front axle of the truck he uses during demonstrations. According to a press release published by the collective, this tool would have allowed the police to geolocate it in real time.
These surveillance methods are not new, but their use has increased, particularly since the Intelligence law of 2015. The reports of the National Commission for the Control of Intelligence Techniques (CNCTR), published each year since 2016, report on this increase.
The number of people geolocated in real time by intelligence services, such as Julien Le Guet, has increased tenfold in seven years, going from 1140 cases in 2015 to 10 in 901. The capture of words and images in a private place (from installing microphones or cameras in a home to capturing the sound environment via a spied on smartphone, for example) experienced an increase of 2022% between 36 and 2016, going from 2022 to 2427 cases. “There were just under 3314 people monitored” in 23, we learn in the latest CNCTR report. And just under 000 in 2021.

End of the green car insurance sticker on April 1, 2024
End of the green car insurance sticker on April 1, 2024Geolintel - March 19, 2024
April fools or April poison that is the question. The dematerialization of everyone's life is always presented as environmental progress since the saving in printing these green stickers will represent a carbon saving and millions of euros.
The height of this hypocrisy is the duty to keep an insurance certificate in your vehicle.
When taking out a contract, the insured will receive a single document from their insurer, the Insured Vehicle Memo. It is advisable to leave this document in the vehicle in order to have access to this information at any time.
The abolition of the green card is supposed to fight against fraud and non-insurance, but above all to increase the control of motorists by the authorities. We are witnessing the privatization of personal data by the State to increase repression and sanctions.
The decree relating to the abolition of the automobile “green card” was published in the Official Journal on December 9, 2023. This decree represents an important step forward in simplifying the administrative life of the French.
With the centralization of insurance information, 680 vehicles, according to Road Safety estimates, will be scrutinized to track down automobile non-insurance.
Increase in the price of car insurance
In 2024, car insurance prices will increase further, 49% of French people do not know how much the increase in their insurance rates will be.
Faced with this inflation of automobile insurance, policyholders are struggling to pay for repairs after an accident due to the increase in the price of repair parts.
With the new insurance files, the State will know whether the vehicle is legal to drive or not.
If we add to this the end of repairs for vehicles over fifteen years old, it is a real tyranny which will weigh on the shoulders of the French people affected by these new decisions.
The average price of car insurance in France is €630 per year and the increase in costs for parts and insurance will force the insured to take out third-party insurance to maintain their car budget.
Any owner of a vehicle in circulation must have at least civil liability insurance (required by Article L211-4 of the Insurance Code).
Third-party car insurance offers the legal minimum level of coverage imposed by the Insurance Code. This guarantee allows you to repair damage caused to others by your vehicle but does not take into account the damage you suffer.
Everything is done to encourage people to limit vehicle maintenance and a new decree requiring examination to ensure the reliability and safety of the vehicle through a technical inspection, would be dramatic for the motorist. This project is in the “boxes” and would condemn the insured to no longer being able to use his car with all the consequences that ensue.
Modernization and control
Since May 2023, the automobile technical inspection has included two new checks: the automatic emergency call and the collection of information relating to fuel consumption. If the first can give rise to a counter-inspection, the second is not obligatory. “eCall” is mandatory on all new cars sold since 2018. It is an automatic emergency call in the event of an accident to the emergency services and which transmits the GPS coordinates of the position of the accident vehicle. The other OBFCM regulation (On Board Fuel Consumption Monitoring, i.e. “automated measurement of fuel consumption”), enacted by the European Commission for all vehicles put into circulation since January 1, 2021, requires manufacturers to install software that records consumption data. The aim is to be able to collect information on actual consumption and to prove whether excessive speed caused an accident.
The car, a concern for insurers
In 2022, insurers paid more than 50 billion euros in compensation to their customers, including 10 billion for natural disasters. Insurers, for the sake of economy, are looking for those who are unlucky and bad payers. More than a million French people have had their insurance canceled and this purge is not over. In the event of a recurrence of a claim, the insured may be terminated by his insurer without any justification other than that it costs too much.
Car insurance is intended to cover risks; in the event of an increase in responsible or non-responsible claims, the insurer can cancel you without arbitration. The reasons given are: Unpaid premiums, accumulation of claims, aggravated risk, false declaration, omission or inaccurate declaration, missing documents (license, information statement, registration document). According to article A.211-1-2 of the insurance code, your insurer also has the right to terminate you after a claim if this is mentioned in the general conditions of your contract in the “termination” section.
How long will we continue to accept this tyranny over motorists?
