Vautrin believed that debt should occupy a central place in the upcoming presidential election. He warned that France risked, in his view, gradually losing its sovereignty and that capital holders could buy its assets. He criticized the left for ignoring the issue and denying the existence of a problem. He criticized Pigasse's publications on debt, which Thomas Porcher would have approved, as well as left-wing economists invited on television, particularly Thomas Piketty and Gabriel Zucman. Vautrin accused this political current of being unable to defend responsible management of public finances without calling into question its redistribution model. He also recalled a phrase attributed to Margaret Thatcher about the lack of money from others that socialism, according to her, would lead to. On the right, he perceived a gradual awareness of the problem, which he considered insufficient. He viewed the most likely scenario as a crisis followed by drastic cuts in spending. These cuts risked, in his opinion, being poorly understood by a population used to public money for over 40 years, exacerbating unrest and trapping the country in a difficult cycle. #Dette #ÉlectionPrésidentielle #Souveraineté (translated)
