Macron lowers expectations for the future





Having recently returned from what I am certain was a splendid vacation, Emmanuel Macron sounds a dire warning to French citizens.

He uses words like 'the end of abundance', warns of big 'upheavals', 'scarcity of resources', 'loss of democracy and human rights'.

He blames much of these problems on the war in Ukraine which he did little to nothing to stop. France, like most of the west, keeps the war fires fueled by sending weapons to a sinking Ukrainian military.

Macron does not look particularly confident as things collapse across Europe and in France, largely due to the US-EU sanctions on Russia that boomeranged onto the western bloc.

I'm certain that these warnings will not apply to the rich elites in France or across the west. These warnings are aimed at working and poor people.

The message? Your days are numbered.

How will the peasants respond?
