The Obama administration is asking all nations in the developed world to come to the aid of France following that country’s economic implosion and spiking levels of poverty.
The French government’s troubles became widespread after it sent billions of dollars to the United States, which had emptied its charity and service coffers to help Japan in the wake of its disaster trifecta.
Billions of relief dollars recently went to Japan, the third largest economy in the world, where it was used to help people without utilities, food and safe housing following the earthquake, tsunami and nuclear meltdown.
Soon after France and other nations began sending charity relief to Washington D.C. to keep the lights on at agencies that support people without utilities, food and safe housing following decades of political neglect.
The French-U.S. relations struggled under the Bush administration when France sided against Bush’s decision to invade Iraq in 2003. The two countries appear to be united again through common military grounds in their assault on Libya. Fortunately for both countries, military financing has remained strong to support interventions abroad. Ironically, social programs for the French and American populations, can’t seem to turn a similar profit.
