Good on the French!

As a French student, who will be going there as part of my degree in not long over a year's time, it is good to learn that, despite the fact that their President is a narcissistic moron, they sometimes come up trumps, as I see via Guido:

"France has just cut booze and restaurant sales tax from 19.6% to to 5.5%. Booze taxes are already reasonable in France, this makes going out even more reasonable. "

Excellent! A 14% cut! It's hard to even imagine that happening here - no wait, it's hard to even imagine imagining that happening here.
