You may have heard about the French always on strike. French while not completely saints, do NOT go on strikes as much as other countries, In fact, a lot less than how it is projected in the media. This French spirit cannot be understood without maybe understanding the French Revolution. Despite fine wines, delicious cuisine, high fashion, and hundreds of different cheese to choose from, the French are Les Misérables.

The topic of the French economy goes untouched without talking about its high unemployment rate. There has always been a correlation between the minimum wage and the unemployment rate. French work fewer hours compared to other countries, 35 hours a week. The minimum wage in France is 1,554 Euro which is one of the top five in the world.
