I believe you are correct in your assessment of Fwances financial situation. So, since they don’t have the worlds most powerful military to back them up, and their banks are teetering, and they don’t produce very much that can’t be had elsewhere with higher quality for less money, why hasn’t Fwance defaulted on their loans yet? Why haven’t they furloughed 600,000 government apparatchiks in an attempt to balance their budget? How do they seem to still be operating as if everything were in perfect order?
