    Are those the same guys who fail to meet 2% of budget target to fully fund NATO participation?

      Yeah, right? This year, the U.S. is pouring two-thirds of its discretionary spending down the military rat hole. Why can't France? Oh, wait. France has hiked their 'defense' spending by more than forty percent, so they'll be ceremonially burning two percent of their GDP by 2025. Instead of the lousy 1.82% they're shredding now. Spendthrift frogs have so much to learn. Empire isn't free after all.

        Well, you know, the collective affluent French population is just going to rally around that call to pay.
