The Depardieu symptom

It is a new phase of French Revolution with "off with the Rich's head" mindset all over again...


Soooo let me get this right: the French movie star who has been a leftist icon and strongest supporter of any french socialist government for the past 30 years, has decided to flee France for tax purposes and has found refuge & granted citizenship from one of his dictator friends Putin in a Communist country where he will pay only 13% vs the 75% new tax laws of France...!?
Anybody seeing the absusdity & irony of all that ??
If anything, it should dawn on the French that:
1) they have bcecome such a Socialist redistributionist system that it is pushing away the best talents/assets of its Nation: do you think any Socialist voter or official will understand that it is time to wake up & get back to beeing the compassionate but positive, creative & productive Nation that is should be ?
2) anybody realize that it is happening with a Capitalist model citizen whom, even after regularly paying taxes for 50 years to his motherland has accumulated a+$ 200 Million wealth all along withhis impressive track record as a Socialist supporter & friendship with all kinds of dictators such as Castro or Putin...?

One would think that all that irony would resonate, sink in with the French...?
It tells you a lot about the current mainstream mentality of this Nation and how much moral & political blindness they are ensensed with...
