Our friends the French have voted down the new EU constitution.

"Treaty opponents built an ad hoc coalition of the disgruntled by bashing the United States, Turks, immigration in general, Eurocrats and free-market capitalism."

It's amusing to me that the EU would be seen as allied with free-market capitalism, since it is so regulation-prone. Perhaps in the big picture the EU would still foster a freer economy than the one France currently languishes under.

France has a long-standing unemployment rate of 10 percent. The people are understandably unhappy about that. But maybe they should take notice that our unemployment rate is much lower.
