This is the enemy. Although unlike the globalist elite...she is at least upfront and forward about being a facist!
Quote:Ségolène Royal unveils far-left economic campaign platform
By Katrin Bennhold
VILLEPINTE, France: Ségolène Royal, the presidential candidate of the Socialist Party, unveiled a long- awaited platform on Sunday, veering sharply to the left on economic policy while also stressing discipline and "traditional values."
Ten weeks before the election, Royal is hoping to reverse a slide in popularity that has seen her lose ground to her main challenger, Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy.
Wait...what?! A socialist was popular before? Doesn't Europe remember the reign of so called socialists...Mussolini and Hitler both touted themselves as socialists before becoming true fascists. I guess people aren't learning history over there anymore.
Quote:In a two-hour speech to about 10,000 supporters north of Paris, she laid out a 100-proposal platform, pledging to raise pensions, to increase the minimum wage to €1,500, or about $2,000, a month and to guarantee a job or further training for every youth within six months of graduating from university.
If anyone can find all 100 proposal PLEASE post them on here so I can dissect them. What I love about socialists, in the love to hate sort of way, is the way they say something...but mean something completely different...I guess a lot like normal politicians........anyways. Increase the minimum wage. Yes, sounds good. But socialists want to bring down wages and owned wealth of everyone. Also to control businesses under state leadership or overview. So basically you'll be working for the state and your wages will come with a "redistribution of wealth". What that means is legal stealing of people's personal property money. But it's only from the rich...well only from the rich that don't run the country...which is the upper middle class. Those who got to be upper middle based on their own merits and not from some trust fund. So basically you're going to be hurting your own class if you're in the middle class. This isn't too bad for the poor or the working poor (aka...the poor!) because when you're poor you don't care where the money would come from if you could bring yourself up another rung in the social system. Of course, "bring yourself up" here would mean...let the government bring you up there. And if your middle class and lower middle class you don't want "the Johnsons" to have it better than you so you want to bring those snooty people down a peg. What will really happen is that once the govt redistributes the wealth everyone but those who held onto their vast amounts of money will be considered poor under todays standards and you'll need to find a scapegoat to blame. I wonder what the Jews are doing these days?
Quote:She also said that randomly selected citizens' juries would watch over government policy and that juvenile delinquents could be placed in educational camps run by the military.
Right...and these "randomly selected citizens" will be herded by a government official and let's see if they even take any of their "suggestions".
Quote:As if to preempt her opponents on the right, she stressed throughout her speech that her ideas had been nourished in 6,000 debates with citizens throughout France, a method she has called "participative democracy."
"With me, politics will never again happen without you," a combative Royal, 53, told the crowd of flag-waving supporters wearing her logo on T-shirts and stickers. "Today I offer you a presidential pact: 100 proposals for France to rediscover a shared ambition, pride and fraternity."
That's right politics will never happen without you. Because the one party will control all and there won't be any more politics! It sounds like a good thing. But remember how she defines herself. It sounds good if you're for individual freedom and a grass-roots system of government. However with the definition of socialism you'll realize that Big Brother Is Watching is close behind you and don't be too surprised if you change your country's name to "Oceania".
Quote:Sunday marked the end of the two- month "listening phase" Royal decreed after her nomination in November. On her campaign Web site, a sky blue background was replaced by the blue, white and red of the national flag, and regional campaign teams were equipped with booklets summarizing her program.
Socialism always...ALWAYS...rides on the back of patriotism. Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini all decried out for patriotism while changing the structure of government. Of course being a flawed system and never ever being able to work out in an imperfect world the scapegoats would come about. It was the communist infestation with Mussolini, it was the Jews and commies for Hitler, it was the Jews, the unpatriotic commies, Christians, capitalists, and 10 million other people for Stalin. Patriotism is the chains they put on after throwing off their shackles of the Proletariat.
Quote:In a sign that her recent decline in opinion polls has rallied some of the more skeptical members of her party, Royal's speech was attended by all senior Socialists, including her two rivals for the nomination.
Cheered by supporters and frequently interrupted by applause, she spoke with more ease than usual. When she talked about France's volatile suburbs, where riots erupted in November 2005 and high unemployment rates continue to curb the opportunities of second-generation immigrants, the emotion was evident on her face and in her voice.
"I want for the children in these suburbs what I want for my own children," she said, clenching a fist before her bright-red blazer and prompting the crowd to erupt into a two-minute standing ovation.
Socialists do a great job at getting the biggest group of people to rally against "the system"...the middle class. Every middle class in the world outranks both the poor and the rich combined (just about but don't count Africa and it is). Look at her words. She does say she wants the children in the poorest ghetto neighborhood to have what the richest kid in the "upper east side" has. She is identifying with the middle class and suburbia! Why not compare both extremes to come to the middle? Because one side wouldn't want that and the other side doesn't care enough they are too worried with making the rent payment. No, the biggest block on voters...are the middle class. The middle class is the ruling class without power. We are the "Proles" (from Orwell's 1984) were touted at the true source of untapped power. Emmanuel Goldstein wrote in his book in 1984 that if only the Proles would see that they could rise up as one Big Brother and the Party wouldn't stand a chance! This is what she is doing here. She is luring them into a self made grave plot. And she is doing it closely to how 1984 did it. With money. In 1984 it was the lottery. It never paid what it promised and when it did it was never the full amount. Here she promises a lot, just like Hitler and Stalin, and she, if she gets what she wants, will not be able to provide what she is promising now. Hitler and Stalin both promised huge salaries and great living conditions for the people. What they both got were substandard. Yes, they were out of the fields living in the muck. But they came into dwelling places...that weren't much better. So goes for the same with France...if she gets what she wants.
Quote:A former schools minister, she vowed that she would tackle the social exclusion in the suburbs by reducing the number of students in classes. She also promised free tutoring for students that have difficulties keeping up, and workshops for parents to teach them how to discipline their children.
These are also known as propaganda centers. We, the govt, will teach your children. To spy on you, to worship Big Brother, and we will weed them out of all that crap about right and wrong and freedom and truth. We will teach them...what we want to. There will be no other options!
Quote:A substantial part of her speech was dedicated to social and economic issues, on which Royal took a hard-left line.
"The unfettered rein of financial profit is intolerable for the general interest," she said. "You told me simple truths. You told me you wanted fewer income inequalities. You told me you wanted to tax capital more than labor. We will do that reform."
Ya how dare those business make a profit! Look...when you have no govt control...business get out of wack sure. But when a company reports a net profit of 12 million dollars...that's not a big profit in the global schemes of thing. Sure you'll never see that type of money. But you're not doing the work of an entire company. This woman is a genius. She is playing the game beautifully. She is letting the middle class believe the bumper sticker mentality (this is my definition of a difficult and complex subject that is boiled down to one simplified and somewhat funny statement that may or may not be true. For example: the Iraq war is boiled down to "Who Would Jesus Bomb?" and that's the end of argument for people. A complex subject with a naive little answer. Sounds good and witty but holds no water.) This lady understands how businesses run and operate she's part of the upper echelon. And if she isn't now she will be once she controls it all under govt authority.
Think about it this way. Let's say that 100 Africans are your neighbors. Most of Africa lives on $6 a month on average. You go to your job the same amount of time as them and you either do more or less work than they do...doesn't matter. So let's say at the end of the month you bring in ohhh let's shoot low $10,000. Well this lady comes around and says..."Look at this one person...ONE PERSON...you 100 people don't even make one tenth of the amount he does in the same period for the same amount of work! We should take most of that from him and give it to share with you! Those 100 people and you go out and vote...walla...you're now all living on $63 a month plus govt expenses and control. THAT...is socialism. Yes corporations and companies can be evil and govt should, in my opinion, have some...SOME...control over them. In our country the govt has the responsibility given by the Constitution to "regulate commerce". So it has the power to say "No Mr. Macrohard you can't charge $150 for an OS that you've been rewriting since day 1. You could if you weren't the only company around and/or people didn't need you like we need oil companies." Wait...I'm getting a bit off target. My point is the government should not have control over wealth or companies who are legally making a profit. If we did this in America the New York Stock Exchange would look like the Japanese Stock Exchange....but worse.
Quote:Royal said she would tax companies in relation to what share of their profits is reinvested in equipment and jobs, and what portion is paid to shareholders. She also promised to abolish a flexible work contract for small companies and hold a national conference in June on how to increase salaries.
Who would be controlling this? Ahh the government. What do we call a government who can tell where a company has to reinvest their money? Say it with me kids!!! SOCILAISM!!! This is just one step closer to communism people. Which, in this world, quickly falls into fascism and dicitorialist leaders telling us that a group of people are pigs and apes and responsible for all our problems!!!
Quote:Indeed, she seemed to have something to offer to most groups in society without saying how much the combined measures would cost: Under her presidency, she said, young women would get free contraception, all young people would get access to a €10,000 interest- free loan and the handicapped would see their benefits rise.
I know where it would come from. The People!!! Give them a few years of good living. Then lower the standard of living...taking their money back away. The government blames the Jews or the Muslims or the Clintons or whoever saying "They...THEY are the reason to blame." Then the government has control of all major wealth!! Taa daaa!!! That's France's history OF THE FUTURE-R-R-R-r-r-r...if this chick is elected...or any socialist
Quote:Royal also spoke about foreign policy, an area where she has recently been accused of incompetence, following a series of highly publicized gaffes. She called for a European Union that "protects its citizens" and said that, as president, she would lobby for the European Central Bank to consider not just inflation but also employment and growth when it sets interest rates.
Not only does she want socialism for France but for all of Europe! And why not?! More people in an industrialized area would mean more money for her one system government!
Quote:"I don't want a Europe that is just a free-trade area attached to NATO," Royal said. "Even less do I want a Europe where it's everyone against everyone and social and fiscal dumping replaces solidarity."
Ya cause why have competition! That's never been good for industry or society or inventions! Look how well Ma Bell was doing before those evil "independent thinking people" wanted it "better". That is what she is saying people! Competition is society prospers the society it doesn't harm it. Yes people can make it into something evil and destructive but not if done properly.
Let me give you an example. Let's say you have one company who sells all the food. I'll call it "FloorSmart". Well FloorSmart charges you $10,000 every time you visit them for food and the selection isn't all that great. What will you do? Why you have freedom of choice! You can either pay the $10,000 to eat...or don't eat! Yaaaa!!! But if you add another chain like "Migers" it will only charge you $5,000 each time you visit and purpose and they offer more variety. Well you're going to go there. FloorSmart will lower try and win back you by doing a whole slew of stuff like lower prices, coupons, etc. Now if you add more and more chains you have more completion. When you have that...you...the consumer...win, or at least make out better than before.
This lady doesn't want that! She wants one of everything...no more. That is asinine!
Quote:She also said she would pursue a "solid partnership" with the United States, but accused Washington of sometimes being carried away by its size and power. "Size has nothing to do with principles," she said. Being less powerful "is never a reason to be silent, we saw that with Iraq, where the voice of France was not heard."
She said she would break with "corrupt regimes" and be blunt with allied countries, including Russia, whose "war crimes in Chechnya" she condemned.
Her speech, which touched on everything from the environment to education policy, comes after weeks of criticism from the center-right, which assailed Royal for lacking ideas and a clear program.
Ahead in the polls until late last year, Royal has slipped behind Sarkozy since he was officially nominated on Jan. 14. The latest BVA poll, conducted last week, gave the interior minister a four- point lead over Royal in a straight run- off and suggested that François Bayrou, a centrist candidate, was gaining ground at her expense.
Even members of her own camp had grown impatient in recent weeks, eagerly awaiting her program. But on Sunday, supporters in the Villepinte convention center expressed hope that her performance would be enough to kick start her campaign.
"She was good, much better than usual," said Marie-Pierre Grassineau, a 45- year-old social worker, who said she had feared Royal would disappoint in the face of inflated expectations. "At last the campaign can begin."
In an apparent attempt to steal the limelight, Sarkozy chose Sunday to give a speech to 3,000 supporters in central Paris, vowing that if elected he would open his government to politicians outside his center-right party.
His Union for a Popular Movement party swiftly denounced Royal's list of proposals as "archaic" and a return to old-school socialism.
Reminiscent of the 110 proposals that carried her mentor, François Mitterrand, to the Élysée Palace in 1981, Royal's presidential platform will be filled out with more details in a series of high- profile campaign meetings over coming weeks.
Ok I've written a lot about this. Yes, it's happening in France but I want you to see what a true socialist mentality will get you. If you have question about it I would love to answer them on this subject. My main point for posting this was...look at American and the people coming up in power. Do they sound like this socialist lady? Do you hear people in Hollywood talk this way? Look around you and learn from other people's mistakes. Do you see any similarities? Watch out...what sounds good coming from people in power...might end up being really really bad for us all.
Sorry for the long post. I don't know if anyone will even read this but I hope you do. Again, if you have any questions please post them.
