Perhaps a slightly more laissez-faire attitude to work is healthy!

French business leaders want the 35-hour workweek abolished...

France, Germany, Belgium,... a pack of countries with old economy system (just out of the industrial system). Hence bankrupt economy.
Add to that their loss of weapons markets in Africa (Russians killing the market), and some outrageous "Affaires" to finish sinking the boat. Not mentioning Jacques...
Go Redmike, go!
