The catch is that to vote for what passes for 'free trade' in France, you have to vote for wide open borders, to slide deeper into the European Union and the loss of French identity.All they need support is the idea of free trade, free markets and free minds and they'll get exactly what they're hoping for and more.
Don't need Brussels for that.
The more conservative candidate is in favor of more government control of the economy and less involvement in the EU and secure borders.
As long as non citizens do not benefit from any form of government provided support, you're good to go. Robust trade and peaceful interaction do not diminish the cultural identity of a nation, they support it. After all, why would foreign nations trade with you if your culture didn't produce something of value?
In less than 20 years 90% of the voting public will be in favor of government aid of some form due to an 80% unemployment rate from the Robotics Revolution.
Dont be too proud to admit in 2040 that Bernie was right after all.
I'm sorry, are you advocating Socialism? That's never been right, IMO. Deeply immoral ideology.
Re what the voting public wants, that's what the Constitution is for. We are not a democracy, we are a Constitutional Republic. Two wolves and a sheep do not get to decided what's for dinner. Of course, they can try to overthrow and write a new law of the land. Good luck with that.
