To our politicians, our unions, most of our industrialists, our financial institutes, and others…
Wishes? wish for a bit more intelligence…
Wishes? wish for a bit less hypocrisy…
The latest news : buy French. OK! But what?
We must first remember all the distributors who scoured the planet for their shopping. They did not search for new products or innovations but for bargains on products they later encouraged to be copied, therefore pulling down their quality without qualm.
Secondly, we can remember the industrialists who were “copied” and numbed to the point they couldn’t create and react anymore : they submitted to the distributors and followed the same tracks, using the same manufacturers, the same methods, the same products…
So, what is the problem ?
We have been buying “French” for a long time, but made in China, India, Vietnam, Poland, Tunisia…
An to be honest, the problem is not to buy “French” : it is possibly to “imagine” French, to “create” French, to “brainstorm” French.
We are far from it.
France has become a creative desert. Numerous skills have been sacrificed and nothing new has taken its place.
So we, French, will buy wine, cheese, perhaps some perfume… We’ll definitely buy books, music and entertainment. And for the rest, we’ll take whatever buyers from all sides have left us.
Or perhaps we’ll go e-shopping on the Internet where international shops are full of wonders whose origins don’t matter, because we desire them so much.
Meanwhile we’re waiting for the French Sleeping Beauty to wake up…
