A Different Approach to Dealing with the Woldwide Financial Crisis: Strike?

I'm not a big fan of the stimulus packages either but French citizens are taking it a little too far in my opinion. Striking...come on! Do you really think that will help....really? Check out the full article here.

"Hundreds of thousands of strikers marched through French cities Thursday to demand pay rises and protection for jobs, challenging President Nicolas Sarkozy to do more for ordinary workers."

A good attempt, but...

"...the one-day strike failed to paralyze the country and there was little evidence of huge support from private-sector employees."

Sounds like the French government employees just wanted an excuse to socialize in the streets for a day. Good for you guys, keep up the great work.
