I can't vote for the left… I want a better quality of life, but if we applied their political programe, it would add 150 billion euros to the national debt, we must keep voting center right to save our economy

[purple centrist]
Damn right, better support a dude who's made several political deals with the far right than hurt foreign investor trust in our country

A YEAR LATER

[president Macron, smug, at a podium]
Dear french people… I have a confession to make, in the past 6 months we've added 100 billion euros to the national debt, and also didn't do shit to improve your quality of life, thanks for trusting us once again!

[prime minister Bayrou, crying laughing next to Macron]
People just don't understand that there's two types of national debts - the good one is when it makes rich people richer, and the bad one is when it doesn't
About this comic
Yes it's not abnormal that our debt reached 100 billion for the year already, it's part of the expected balance sheets of the state, but there's a big sadness to knowing that for the same price we could have had a social program instead of making the rich richer while pretending to do austerity measures.
