It is the application of public expenditure

Because French Liberal, I am a supporter of economic patriotism. I hope that my country is a land of activities, projects, investments and, of course, a land of decisions. I also can't imagine of other hopes for a French officer. The misunderstanding is of economic patriotism is the result of the movement and long-term effort and is not the result of a reflex irascible when surprised by a predictable but unexpected public event, the political power pitched and shines to destroy the image of confidence can be built that in the long term in a few hours.

The France, land of activities, stems from a sharing of values strong, simple, fully rejected by the post-68 generations which I, unfortunately or fortunately, completely part. The first is the meaning of the effort, which is much more than the mere acceptance of the work. It is not only to work to earn his daily bread in the sweat of his brow. It must build its autonomy and develop its capabilities. The work, it is, but it is the most often target the average to remain in the platoon. The effort, it take the platoon forward taking the risk of the escapement. In any case, it is the opposite of a nation of suckers wheels where the energy of the small number is supposed to take the entire group.

Naturally, the effort must be recognized and the effort should be rewarded. However, the political France considers that those who have so much energy to resell must pay their share, which is fair, and the part of those who have less or who did not, which is much more debatable.

The first act of a constructed economic patriotism is to recognize the right to the effort and its corollary, the right to keep the fruit of this effort. And, of course, the ability to transmit therefore have paid proportionately contributions to collective life.

The second act of economic patriotism is to develop the sense of the project supported by those who believe. However, this is exactly the opposite that characterizes our country: projects abound, but multiply, and firstly those funded not by those who believe, but by those who are completely foreign. In a Word, the projects are even more likely that their funding is provided by the community and not by the promoters of the project. Péguy said: "I don't think only to witnesses willing to kill for their testimony." We only have witnesses who do not undertake themselves but who rely on the community, in the broad sense, to support their project.

This is not the public expenditure that is too high in France. It is the application of public expenditure. How would it also be otherwise because, precisely, taxation and compulsory private personal projects or collective financing very difficult Public funding of a project has a major disadvantage, however, he does not know self-destruct in the finding of his failure, while the privately financed project stops itself its social usefulness if it does not impose.

The France is no shortage of initiatives, but she does not know prune. Bad extended projects stifle new projects, as surely as grants to the condemned activities deprive the new opportunities of any means of development.

The third act is derived from the first two: return of private financing. The main driver of savings is the need for security. The community has achieved the near-monopoly of security on these obvious risks that are disease, dependency, old age, unemployment. In an economy without population growth, with open borders and monetary stability imposed by the European order, it must, first and foremost, generate coverage by offering private social risks. Solidarity only transfers actually translates the constant debt to the community. The blindness of the now dominant generations stifles the hopes of future generations, crushed debts before have started to work. Alternatively, the investment risk, the outbreak of innovative and ambitious projects, presupposes extensive savings whose employment is not restricted to real estate and property of the Treasury.

Economic patriotism, it is a France, land of decisions. We have assets that we have not managed to sabotage: geographical position, quality of life because, recognize the honestly, public expenditure has counterparties positive, costly but useful, of the hospital to the TGV, highways at the University.

We must make progress on two tracks which are only the policy: simplicity, clarity and stability of the rule of law, and respect by the power's stubborn policy given speech. After, naturally, be at the Rendez-vous quality: youth training, labour, taxation, cost of living right. A careful marking bench must avoid us blind complacency too "franchouillarde".

Economic patriotism, finally, it is the France Earth activities recognized by the global players. This is not a matter of prohibition but seductive. But it is not prohibited to seduce, especially when it is proud of his country and that known capable of the best.
