#Macron used to be the darling of Davos, and Macron’s #France once was a darling of global #business

French voters wanted to believe, that Macron could rescue France …

European leaders wanted to believe, that Macron’s France could rescue Europe …

Global investors wanted to believe, that the Wunderkid could rescue the markets …

Young World Rescuer not in Davos

Back to reality in Paris and orbi.

Don’t confuse Bay (or other things) watching, and ski monitoring (or no-show) …

Did anybody miss the French politicians at #LasVegas #CES2019 ?

For some French reason, the French politicians decided not to come to Vegas Consumer Electronics Show (CES) this year. Those who miss the “champions du monde” of the FrenchTech too badly may try to come and visit the StartUp Nation next French election season.

Never mind the garbage in the streets (and the news), the public transportation disturbance and air traffic jams, the terrorist attacks, media horseshit and political sabotage … France is no longer AAA, is ruled by socialists, is struggling to try and stay in the train of the digital revolution, and is not even the 6th world’s economic powerhouse … still singing (the Internationale) whilst sinking, that’s all there is to say.

Byzeway, California is the 6th largets economy, now …

Lol #TTIPLeaks #TaftaLeaks by #GreenPeace

I usually don’t give a damn when 40 year-old students or so called engaged citizens working with ONGs protest against this or that, because democracy and civilisation are not noisy ungrownups and subsidized tax free activists, but I’m all the more happy about the TTIPLeaks, since this may help save good food and decent European civilization for a little while more.

French KISS (Keep It Short, Stupid) is good, but tax cheating comes more often.
