Sarkozy. France gets their Reagan.
And things get better. Just ask the French. (HT Hot Air).
France’s jobless rate lowest since 1983
France’s national statistics agency said Thursday that the country’s jobless rate has fallen to 7.8 percent, its lowest level since 1983.The Insee statistics agency says the drop in the fourth quarter of 2007 was the lowest rate since the fourth quarter of 1983. It fell from 8.3 percent in the third quarter. Insee says the rate is even lower if only metropolitan France is counted, standing at 7.5 percent, or 2.1 million people.
Cutting jobs has been a priority of successive French governments, and President Nicolas Sarkozy has put it at the top of his list, too. But he told the daily newspaper Le Figaro that the economy needs reforming to create jobs and reduce deficits.
