is an e-mail I received from a nice guy named Walter. I was glad reading his e-mail, because here, in the People's Republic of France, homelessness and poverty are conidered the result of "too much capitalism and too little State intervention". Reading such things is quite a relief when constantly swimming into a sea of marxist delusion: reality exists, some people saw it!</i><br /><br /><blockquote style="border-style:none;border-left:1px solid;border-top:1px solid;padding-left:15px;padding-top:15px;width:400px">Hello<br /><br />I have seen this so many times in my vacations to Paris. Some of these folks have been doing this "professionally" for a long time. There was a man who had a spot on Rue De Lyon, between Rue Parrot and the Gard De Lyon, who was at the same spot year after year. He spoke French, German, Italian and English. He told me he got money from the government, but preferred to beg during the day. He had a flat (also helped by the government) and never spent a night on the streets, but during the day time he would sit on the same part of Rue De Lyon and beg and argue politics with anyone who would help/listen.<br /><br />He admitted that it was the all the handouts available from the French government that enabled him to become what he was.<br /><br />I haven't been back to Paris in two years, mainly because of the evolving Muslim problem. I know the streets of Paris like the back of my hand, as well as I know Denver Colorado, (I live just outside of Denver). And these problems are starting to invade the city centre. It use to be I would only see these things up north of the city, when going to the Casino du Paris, or further up. But the last time I was there, I saw a lot more problems all over the city, north, south, east or west. <br /><br />I worry for the culture of the city, and the safety of the French people. I hope they will not let the Muslims just walk in and walk all over them.</blockquote><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1'

Picturing this "worker's paradise" from the inside gave a slightly different view. As France can hardly be compared to the USSR (France is far less powerful), similarities are merely obvious: <br />- ideology: lots of French alleged "intellectuals" were and still are communist. The die-hard French socialist mind stands still as opposed to modern free markets, (classical) liberal Anglo-Saxon policies, no matter the price, no matter the results. <br />- propaganda: the socialist agenda doesn't come from Moscow anymore. International media such as the AFP (its directors are named by the French government) or the new CII (the 'French CNN'), international neocommunist "Agitprop" groups such as Attac or other gangs of anti-Globalization punks, some European leftist think tanks, all of them relay a French-brewed biased point of view. France has the largest diplomacy in the world.<br />- goals: basically, to be a counterweight to America, now by the means of the EU and the UN.<br />This &laquo;French Social Model&raquo; is actually the last thing left in order to carry on the present socialist agenda, and the propaganda is so massive that anything deserves to be done to fight the monster. This is my little Samizdat.<br /></p><br /><br /><b><i>Why showing pictures of poor guys dying in misery?</i></b><br /><p style="text-align:justify">I'm not here to show misery because of what it is: unbearable. Those images are the <i>reality</i> of France. I take pictures of them on my every day trips to earn my life -- I'm despoiled of my income by about 75% taxes, in order to keep the glorious social model running one more month. I don't plan my trips in order to take pictures of homeless; they merely are here, sitting next to millions of Parisians. According to me, the most dramatic thing is, admitting of course that they shouldn't be so numerous, homeless people became as familiar as pigeons are for Parisians: they can see them everywhere and they don't care -- Socialism is also a mental disease, it creates merely inhumane reactions: "Nanny State is supposed to take care of them, so why bother?".<br />I've been hesitating for a long time, thinking I had to respect those poor guys' privacy and dignity. But I had to do so, I had to show what France had become, in order to witness to what should never be done...<br /></p><br /><br /><b><i>Well, there are bums all over the world, in each big city. You claim it's because of socialism, but you can find a lot in America and other capitalist countries, but it doesn't mean free market economy has failed.</i></b><br /><p style="text-align:justify">The first thing is true. But you have to come to Paris in order to see by yourself the extent the problem. The number of homeless people is growing exponentially, as poverty is falling all around the world. As far as I know, most of the bums in America are mentally-ill people, but you can't force them into hospital. Others are individuals who chose to live that way. In France, it's not the same problem: the mentally-ill persons are in jail, and 25% of the homeless do have a regular job, and others chose to live that way too. <br />Another very important thing as far as relief is concerned: incentives. in France, the Nanny State (allegedly) takes care of the poor: civil servants are paid to distribute (my) money to what basically become their customers, the benefits recipients become the justification for their very existence. Charities are also subsidized by my money: for the charity, the incentive is to have a whole lot of bums to "take care of", in order to get subsidies the next year; for the charity recipient, there's no incentive to get out of misery, as he'll always get the taxpayers' money and subsidized charities to get food and a bed. In Anglo-Saxon countries, the main part of the poverty relief is private charity: individuals giving their money and their time to take care of another individual. The incentives for the giver is to be glad of having helped somebody out of misery, and the incentive for the relief recipient is to satisfy the guy who helped him, because if he doesn't the Samaritan will stop helping him.<br /></p><br /><br /><b><i>In the end: What for?</i></b><br /><p style="text-align:justify">Only one simple thing: I'd be glad if people coming around have such images back in their mind the next time their hear or read the words &laquo;French Social Model&raquo;. <br /></p><br /><br /><br /></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1'
