Hey, comone Tracy, the French have great vacations, free speech, great food, beautiful country, the right to protest and are as free as anyone else. The idea of the independent "pioneer" Daniel Boon type was a myth from the very beginning. This country was developed by cooperation. The pioneers helped each other, barn raising, for example. The smart ass guys that thought they could go it alone (bank robbers, train robbers, cattle rustlers) ended up hanging from the nearest tree.
