Yellow Vests in France

I read an interesting article by @samstonehill on the Yellow Vests in France and wanted to share the article with you, as it represents “on the ground reporting” of this historical event:

I also followed a link in the article to the Yellow Vest website where they have a picture of a yellow vest with a list their grievances and the issues they want their government to address. Sadly it is about a living wage, medical care, taxes and benefits. Even a modern democracy like France is caught up in the economic upheaval of our times. It’s a public protest so the list of grievances and posters are public domain, so I have a picture of it here.

I think you’ll find it interesting :

Here is a link to their written demands:

One thing that I know is the France was showing that Social Democracy isn't working. I think that they only will stop the protest when they change their minds to something more less Social.
Thanks for sharing.
Cheers!

I agree, but France wants to move the other way. Everyone poor.

Totally agree... That is why I said that they need to change their minds.

Oh. I hope the people are able to make their voices heard and the situation resolved amicably.
