French politicians start an anti-thinking campaign

French politicians start an anti-thinking campaign. The land of Descartes, Sartre and Beauvoir is turning away from books and towards work. Hard to believe but leading French politicos including Sarkozy have spoken about this in a very public way. Sarkozy even loudly pronounced at a media stop recently "I am not an intellectual." And his Finance Minister in a speech to Parliment urged all french people to stop thinking and start working. Incredible, no!
