Haha. The French are socialists. You still don't get that there are not really any socialists in the US.

I reckon your countries biggest challenge (and mine) is echoed throughout the western world - aging populations, insufficient birth rates and a lack of (direct) saving by either private individuals or (most) governments means that there could be some serious pain - or major changes - in a decade or two.

I also wonder what the impact of China's and India's populations increasing desire to be middle class will do to the cost of goods and services (and hence the buying power of the western world).
