[quote:Anonymous Coward 862656:MV8xMjIyMzQxXzE5ODg1MTEyXzUxMTlFMUJG] [quote:Shilliam S. Burroughs] Cool, i like how the french protest a lot, here in Germany things must be very bad before protest forms. Our pension age is 67, the new one in France is 62 iirc? People in America protest only when Jon Stewart or Glenn Beck tell them to...and nothing ever happens as a result. People here can make fun of the French all they want, but at least the French have the backbone to stand up to TPTB. Here in America we bow down so quickly and completely that it is just pathetic. [/quote] the yankees bow down and protest bowing down. down south we keep our mouths shut and rifle guns oiled. you boys holler all you want.things get to out of whack don't worry, we got ways of clearing little political problems up right fast.

AFP - The fuel pipeline to Paris' two main airports as well as depots outside the capital was cut on Friday, operator Trapil told AFP, as pension reform protests around the country hit supplies.
The main Paris air hub, Charles de Gaulle, could run out of fuel as early as next week, a company spokesman said, adding that three fuel depots supplying road filling stations south of the capital would also be hit.
