As a Frenchman, let me explain:
- Currency too strong for the French economy.
- Extensive and extremely unfair regulations (for example, you can't fly a drone within 30 meters of buildings, and training costs €5,000 to obtain all the necessary permits. How much do you charge for drone deliveries? You need a special permit, which can be refused because the civil servant is in a bad mood).
- Civil servants are numerous and inefficient. The joke is that one civil servant position creates three jobs: the civil servant, the person who controls the civil servant, and the person who controls the controller.
- The EU is expensive for a negative gain; it is a source of regulation.
-The country is going into massive debt to send money to Zelensky, cover the country in wind turbines (useless since nuclear power covered our needs anyway), and maintain a Soviet healthcare system where everything is free but you have to wait 14 fucking hours to be treated in a provincial public hospital.
-From time to time, we hear stories like: "150 million in aid sent to Romania, 50 million to South Africa, 80 million to Azerbaijan..."
Basically, the country is very poorly managed, it's absurd beyond words, our institutions are 50 years behind and an ineffective Soviet system of redistribution is sucking up the last breaths of oxygen. Every little thing accumulated weighs like an anvil on the country (especially the EU which is a huge problem and public spending of course) and threatens to capsize the ship. In reality, I suspect Macron of wanting to sink us to put us under the guardianship of the EU because the delusional project of the elites is to dislocate France into this European monster. There, I answered as honestly as possible and painted a picture of the situation. I didn't talk about immigration because it's an obvious problem, and our tourism sector is faltering. Nothing is standing up anymore in the country. This catastrophic situation breaks my heart
