"France’s comedy of taxational errors continues as French revolt against eco-tax"
Apparently, France's prime minister likes higher taxes on everything...
Erika Johnsen has the story on the HotAir.com website:
"Seeing as how they elected an honest-to-goodness Socialist parliamentary majority and president last year, I’m not exactly sure what it is that France thought they were in for — but these days, it isn’t merely French soccer teams publicly displaying their displeasure with the ultra-high tax policies of Francois Hollande and his ministers. Hollande is deeply, historically unpopular, and the government needs still more cash in their coffers to have any hope of meeting their deficit-reduction targets — but the new taxes they’ve been cooking up recently combined with other scheduled tax increases are not going over well."
