This guy and his fellow politicians didn't fix the monetary union when Greece was in trouble, and now it's France's turn... If anything could have been done, it would have been back then, when he was still in charge of making policies and deals.

Europe would be able to sustain our social models with more democracy and egalité, too much difference between the super rich and the majority of the population is the real problem. Tax the rich, restore the founding of education and health systems, protect our resources, these will generate richness.
