"Is this really the time to present the work Sunday as the spearhead of the struggle against the economic crisis and the path to a better quality of life for our citizens? "
" We're not close to a paradox, but it is still surprising that a minister announced a bill which is yet private member. If the government is serious about this text, you have to file a bill!
Furthermore, the Minister of Labour announced a debate in July (another session "extraordinary", as every year ...) then it is an exclusive prerogative of the head of the State generally consults the presidents of the two assemblies is a first!
Especially since it's a miscalculation to count on the summer break - in the same way as last December that some had hoped Truce confectioners sedate French - to adopt a text on the sly, however, vital for the future of French society.
On the merits, the problem is always the same. At first it is not because the stores will be open on Sundays, in addition to other days of the week, the French have more money to spend! In my capacity as member of study group on markets, trade and non-sedentary local shops, I think this text might upset the balance of the territories on Sunday by migrating to big cities customers who do their shopping on weekdays, usually in smaller towns. Such a step would only further weakening the local shops to which the French are very attached.
Then, stop to reduce the rank of French consumers. Our citizens can make a lot of other things on Sunday rather than loiter in stores where everything is done to try ... Sporting, cultural, religious, family reunions, trips, or even the pleasure of doing nothing are the hallmark of Sunday and must remain so!
As for employees supposed to be the big winners from this reform, will they really be happier if they earn more they must sacrifice their family life or associative? And why not give children the legal right to spend a day without school with their parents? "
