No matter who you vote for in France: the end result is always higher government spending! State socialism and a state-controlled economy are elements that have become an integral part of French and European thinking. That is why it makes little difference whether you vote left or right - the end result is always a growing state with a sprawling bureaucracy, new social programs and the attempt to buy votes with the printing press.

It is no coincidence that socialist ideas, the overgrown welfare state and the firm belief that complex decentralized economic processes can be transformed into infantile centralism and thus a society of control can be established, originate from European 'thinkers' and welfare state engineers.
