    Not my intention either to battle about our trading performances, actually, I was fair enough to give you the advice to stay away from trading. I actually revealed that you are the first people either on ET to get me real pissed off. You are the master of intellectual dishonesty. But...

    Followup to French boycott stuff with Fairplay and msfe

    Even supposing the Americans spent all and the Canadians never ever spent an Euro in France, its is only 0.22% of GDP. 0.22% !!! Ridiculous, Negligible. Same thing for exports, it is less than 10%, works both ways, and as I told you companies continue gaining market share, even in the US...

    Exports US 8.7% (2001) Imports: US 8.9% (2001) Not negligible, but as explained, our companies continued gaining market share, even in the worst time (Iraq war) and most sensible fields (military). This Iraq war also had a good side for the economy, since many countries are now...

    Followup to French boycott stuff with Fairplay and msfe

    Well, as a matter of conclusion, I will say that the fact is : **the us tourist is absolutely marginal 4% to the French tourism industry** **the French economy is not tourist based** SO **there is absolutely no consequence to the absence of US tourists on the economy** With all due...

    Well, they represent 4% of the whole, do you really think these 4% have 30% of the wealth and the other 96% has 70% ? Regarding the spending by American tourists, all the people I know working in this field, from management to servers, say that the Americans are not the best spenders. They...

    Living and trading in France

    Well, I will provide an answer but have to say this before : I have nothing against those who renounce a citizenship and go offshore *BUT* I believe that if someone lives in a country providing services built and maintained by the collectivity, he should do his share of the work. If you have...

    Let's say that Rumsfled did not help diplomatical relationships... Especially in Paris, Americans are not so well received these days.
