'Yellow vest' violence erupts across Europe: Paris riots spread to Brussels and Amsterdam as 1,400 a

CHANGE: In France, les deplorables strike back.

 

I voted for Trump and will again. He was lawfully elected, and I do have a problem with the totalitarian tactics used by the Democrats.
I think France is taxed to death and the French government elitest...but dang that is what they elected. Macron wasn't hiding anything.

 

While wanting a better cleaner earth is a noble thing, it can’t be lost that a large amount of beaucrats exist to be parisites on government indeed. A global intuitive seems like it would be near impossible to 1. monitor correctly 2. Enforce and police

 

I wouldn't mind if Brussels burned to the ground, that place is a **** hole, ashes would be an improvement. Europe is just reaping what it sowed from its own stupidity, I just hope we don't have to save them from themselves when this really goes to hell...

 

Europe isn't burning. Three streets in Paris and some capital cities are.

I kind of support the yellow jackets but in the same time I don't see an "after" plan. Overthrow the government, I'm willing too, but too replace it with what ?

 

the mass majority are tainted with socialism being their torch, they voted macron in for more handouts and didn't expect gas prices to rise in taxes

 

Big mistake.
If Macron goes then Jean-Luc Mélenchon is the most likely to replace him and France goes back to its socialist policies.
The protesters are calling for cuts in taxes and increased public spending.
Macron is the French Thatcher, trying to modernise the economy, tax breaks for businesses and tax cuts for the rich. He's taken powers away from unions and workers and cut public spending. His plans include cutting 120,000 public sector jobs.

 

Europeans are finally revolting over their leftist regimens that have ruined the once proud Old World...it’s tragic what leftist policies have done to Europe

 

Nope.
Since when were tax cuts for the rich and cuts to government spending leftist policies?
I suggest everyone reads up on Macron's policies before they make themselves look foolish by calling them leftist.

 

They are protesting his high taxes. He founded the leftist REM party.

 

These carbon fantasies take resources from real pollutants, like ocean plastic, radioactive waste, agricultural and industrial waste.

For the climate cultists, the climate change movement isn't really about the climate, its about global submission to a transnational bureaucracy.

 

Go read up what his policies are. He's a Centrist.

 

They already do that in Portland and Berkeley, where the rule of law is dead.

 

I have and heard his speeches. Te orotest aren’t over cutting taxes

 

Yup, when Communism went out of business, environmentalism became the weapon of choice to attack the free-enterprise system.

 

Here's hoping.

 

I love how these Globalist Bureaucrats think they are entitled to US funding, and before Trump, their funding demands were routinely met!

 

Has Hillary called the French protesting higher taxes 'deplorables' yet?

One of the protesters said they are so oppressed by high taxes and a flat economy they can't afford to have a family. This is one reason Europe is demographically dying.

 

Actually, in part they are. The working and middle classes don't like the tax cuts for the richest members of French society while they suffer from Macron's welfare cuts and increases of tax on essentials such as fuel.

 

The working class doesn't like raising taxes on the poor and lowering them on the rich, go figure.

It's not like you can use public transport if you live in rural France. Fuel excise is just a tax for them, it has no incentive.

 

It’s all over tax increases, tr fuel tax is all about climb change

 

There are multiple issues motivating these protests. Welfare cuts, indifference to the plight of rural France, high unemployment, increased cost of living, elitist/globalist policies(ie tax cuts for the rich) , immigration and many more.
An increase on fuel tax was the catalyst but if it were all about that tax increase then Macron's climbdown on it would have ended the protests.
Again, I urge you to read up on it and try to use multiple sources of information so that you can see the media biases.

 

Agreed on some of the issues...all failures of the leftist regime

 

Centrist regime, Melanchon leads the left in France. Macron broke from the left to persue his pro business elitist policies.
Seriously, read more and talk less.
It is better to be silent and considered a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

 

Nah, it's pretty simple. .30 Euro tax increase on fuel. All the other extraneous is just that, extraneous. This is literally about folks burning down the cities of Europe because Macron et al were too stupid to take the temp of the room before flaunting those taxes on the people. The rest of the socialism meme BS is just that.
