Impossible to say if these were looted or traded for surely?

Wow, this is surely what’s been missing in my life. Honestly this would just suck, who would want to do this? I cannot see an upside.

It’s laughable to compare what’s happening in France, with that which is happening in Israel. In France, Macron raised the pensionable age by a couple years, in Israel its a power play and attack on democracy.
Also Macron has his hands tied, France like most of the west has an aging population. Old people need carers and a country needs infrastructure and enough skilled tradesmen to maintain and improve it. It’s either raise the pensionable age or actively seek mass migration into the country and let’s face it, because of populist politicians that’s not something that’s going to happen
