ET--France and Germany were correct about Iraq, and it looks like the USA is starting to become more French in its approach to the economy. Maybe it is time to work less and get less expensive healthcare while we are at it.
We could learn a few things from the French. Let's start with our national drink of choice. Budweiser is no longer an American company. Maybe we should adopt a nice California winery as the new icon of the American way of life. And, after that we could all stop eating bad fast food and getting grossly overweight.
