French Strikes and violence

Nobody likes to lose there job,but in France there seems to be a different set of rules,compared to the rest of Europe.You can hold your boss as a hostage,or threaten (though a hoax) to blow up your company? The French police stand around chatting to each other? In any other country you would be arrested! I am afraid the average French worker is living in a time warp in the 1970's! Supply and demand is the rule of international trade now. If the customer does not buy your product,then your company close's,and jobs are lost ;thats how the world functions,learn to live with it?

Anarchy

How is it, France teeters on the brink of anarchy, with such labor initiated threats as bombing a factory, holding company officials hostages, etc... Utter insanity!

Comment se fait-il, la France est au bord de la anarchie, le travail engagé avec ces menaces de bombardement d'une usine, les représentants de la compagnie détenant des otages, etc .. Utter folie!
