"The real injustice is not that one wins more than the other" because it also depends on life choices, but that we have "not the same chance of success in families or places different ", defended Emmanuel Macron before the mayors of Occitanie Friday. In a long advocacy for his policy, after listening to the mayors' questions for 2:40, the head of state summarized his economic and social vision, including criticism of the removal of the ISF.
"Inequalities of destiny". "If one wins more than the other," he judges, "it depends if he works more, or if he has the means to do so, if he considers that the objective of his life is to earn money, or to create businesses, or whatever.There may be one who has decided to have another family balance, or to spend less time at work or who is less talented at school, it happens too! ", he said. "In this French passion for taxation, we do not talk enough about inequalities of destiny," he said. "The real inequality is that with the same talent, the same motivation, two French children will not have the same chance of success in different families or different places." That's what we should be indignant about "he judged. "The real subject to reduce these inequalities is school and it's work," he continued.
"We must evaluate" the ISF. The president also defended his tax and social choices, from the elimination of the ISF to the decline of housing subsidies. "It is not by restoring the ISF and by making the citizens' initiative referendum that we will solve the problem of mass unemployment," he concluded. "The ISF is not a subject between rich and poor for me, it's about 'do we want to help our businesses or not'," he detailed. "But we must evaluate it, if there are more effective measures, we must improve things," he conceded. Emmanuel Macron also recalled that he wanted to create a universal income activity, a "subsistence income" managed through a single window of social assistance but with "rights and duties".
