Why does it skew the numbers? That number for the French included advanced degrees. Your simply spinning. That's all you've been doing this whole time. France has serious serious problems... a lot of which caused by the saftey nets. It's simple when your on welfare you don't really own anything... Wealth is the most important factor to success. France's social saftey nets provide more, but take away the oppurtunity to build wealth. Additionally Americans are more hardworking, but this has nothing to do with the government, but Frances positives do? Which are once again, not that positive in a lot of areas.

Ok, even with the advanced degrees in the US college grad unemployment in the US is around 5.9% at the moment, still higher than in france

How am I spinning, i've been showing data that supports my argument from the start.

Umm I never said france doesn't have problems, but I do point out how their safety nets have created more positives than negatives, and I have also pointed out how we have a lot of problems as well problems that could be solved by the implementation of more socialized nets, and so far you haven't shown that their negatives outweigh their positives or how those problems you've listed, like racial issues are due to the socialized nets.
