Mounir Laggoune wrote that he spent a month in the United States working on Finary's artificial intelligence. He believed that, despite its flaws, the country was driven by a strong energy of construction, whereas in France, in his view, the cities were ravaged. He attributed this situation to fifty years of disastrous political decisions, made by both the left and the right, and deemed it unlikely that officials who had been in power for years could change everything. He identified as a fundamental cause a state that, in his opinion, taxed and managed everything, while living on credit since 1974. He argued that the French debt reached 3.6 trillion euros, or 119% of GDP and a record. He also compared the 21 million private sector employees to the 6 million public agents, 3.3 million unemployed, and 17 million retirees. Without change, he warned, dark days awaited the country. However, Laggoune said he remained hopeful, mentioning the know-how, culture, and history of France as well as the interest the world would have in it. He called on the silent majority that works quietly and finances what he referred to as a "circus" to make their voices heard. He announced that the Finary channel would analyze the economic programs of the parties, backed by figures, and said he wanted to give a major oral exam in economics to each candidate. He added that he doubted they would accept. #France #Économie #Politique (translated)
