Fearing France’s worker protections are under threat, hundreds of angry youths on the sidelines of a May Day labor rally >>hurled stones and wood at police in Paris, receiving repeated bursts of tear gas in response.

Good to see youth standing up for their rights when they feel those are under threat, better than seeing apathy.

The only trouble is that workers have ridiculous amounts of rights.

They know this, they know they can't be fired, and is why many have absolutely no respect for their employers.

These changes are desperately needed. As is a scrapping of the catastrophic 35 hour week. Amazing it is the socialist party trying to enact these reforms.

Oh, and Martine Aubry should have her mouth sewn up. With titanium thread. France has run out of other people's money to spend. Reform or collapse.

@Madverts I'm just wondering why you are far harsher on Trump than Sanders after reading that post ;).
