The Yellow Vest Movement - E-book - ePub

Notwithstanding it's peculiarities and perhaps because of them, as France goes, so goes to the world, at least in revolutionary terms. The Yellow Vest movement was and remains in its smoldering embers a turning point in world history, that turn being to the radical right against the soi disant libertie that would enrich antisocial socialist dictators while confining a virtual slave population in straight jackets. People will naturally protest against this swing in the political pendulum, and they may even revolt again, perchance unto a reign of terror under yet another cloak of democracy, thus confusing right and left and all the moments in between for sake of that movement we call the life we secretly would all have unrestrained in anarchy.  Yet absent defining restraint, no individual would exist. Now this collection of articles is a South Beach Florida perspective on the French crisis.
The French are brothers to Americans. Alhough South Beach, notwithstanding its Latin influences, might seem a world away, it has been until the great coronavirus panic a favorite resort of many young French people on a budget during the slow season. Many of us miss and sympathize with them and the revolutionary spirit as prices continue to mount to untold heights in our own version of socialism for the rich.
