well, as delightful as it is to have a shred of common ground with you, wonder, i still would like you to produce some evidence for your claim.
i could--were it not for the red wine---think of lots of other explanations for french unemployment rates, and go on at some length about them.
the situation in france is as complex as it is in any other country---there are no simple explanations..
so show your evidence--and please be explicit about the politics of the source. i will reciprocate--though probably not tonight, as the wine and cake buzz is pulling me to more ethereal zones.
btw, off topic again--might i suggest that you--and whoever else migth read this---track down a cd? polwechsel/fennesz--wrapped islands--the perfect microtonal accompaniment to this or (frankly) most other situations. listen to it and maybe we could understand each other. even if you hate it, you'll get a glimpse of my inner world.
