Analysis of strikes in France

 The French working class has been in the news for massive protests of austerity moves to limit their pensions, but the issues are much more profound.  Economist Professor Richard Wolff has been studying France for many years, and he talks here with the Old Mole's Bill Resnick about the prospects of  the French workers to defeat these anti-worker measures.  For more from Wolff on these matters, go here.  

Pictured here is the storming of the Bastille, 1789.
