In the documentary "Ultra-Rich – Tax Me (If You Can!)", Thomas Lafarge explores how the myth of trickle-down economics, defended by billionaires and economists, has justified the reduction of taxes on the wealthiest despite the lack of evident benefits for society as a whole. (translated)

🔴En parlant d’atteinte aux intérêts vitaux de la Nation, épisode 8 : La fusion Lafarge/Holcim. En 2014, le français Lafarge, leader mondial du ciment, annonce sa fusion avec le suisse Holcim. L’opération est engagée sous Hollande et Valls, puis se poursuit sous Macron, nommé ministre de l’Économie en 2014, avant d’être finalisée en 2015. Le nouvel ensemble, LafargeHolcim, installe son siège en Suisse : la France perd ainsi le contrôle de son principal cimentier et une partie de ses capacités de décision dans une industrie stratégique pour les infrastructures. L’État français, via Bpifrance, ne s’oppose pas à l’opération. Le groupe deviendra ensuite Holcim, faisant disparaître définitivement le nom Lafarge. #Lafarge #Holcim #Fusion
