Looks like the French have found a way to reduce number of seniors receiving government checks. take another month to plan on how to finance care of the elderly. another 5,000 of them should die by then.>>

On Tuesday, Mr Raffarin, who has until the start of October to draw up a plan, said France should cancel one of its public holidays to finance better care for the elderly. One scheme would see employers pay an extra day's social security contributions into a special fund, officials aid.

I'm not surprised. Most of this hatred comes from the propaganda ministers of religious schools...on both sides. Religion is such a good thing, promoting morals and good behavior. All religion is a uniting rallying force to get people to kill other people you don't like. More people have been the victims of religion over the past 5000 years than benefitted from it.
