Donald Trump at the Élysée? His shock therapy for France

PFor many Americans, including Donald Trump a fortiori, is closer to the USSR than to a country in full ultraliberal drift. Who would imagine putting up with a country that takes almost half of GDP and spends even more? When reading the traditional report on public finances given to a newly elected president, he would choke: “300 companies pay 30% of corporate tax? Even communist Joe didn't dare to go this far! »

Donald Trump keeps saying that taxes are too high in the United States. What would be his amazement when attending a budgetary debate in the Finance Committee chaired by Éric Coquerel: the weight of compulsory deductions in the United States was 27.7% in 2022, compared to 45% in France.
