French worker holds a sign that says:
"Retirement is 60 years and full rate because you deserve it!"
The government of right wing capitalist Nicolas Sarkozy is under siege. French working class people have taken to the streets to battle the recent actions of the unpopular president.

French Socialists have strongly criticized the prime minister of the right wing government. Workers strikes are proliferating and the country is beginning to run out of gasoline. (See: French riot police clash with students as petrol stations run dry)
