Perhaps its time to heed the advice of the illustrious Christine Lagarde: “Il faut cesser de penser et se retrousser les manches.”
(Roughly translated: "We must stop thinking and roll up our sleeves.")
In proposing a tax-cut law last week, Finance Minister Christine
Lagarde bluntly advised the French people to abandon their
“old national habit.”
“France is a country that thinks,” she told the National Assembly.
“There is hardly an ideology that we haven’t turned into a theory.
We have in our libraries enough to talk about for centuries to
come. This is why I would like to tell you: Enough thinking,
already. Roll up your sleeves.”
