Why is the French stimulus package more "pro-business" than the current proposed stimulus in the USA?
"The French stimulus plan is split into three parts: 11bn euros to help businesses improve their cashflows; 11bn euros of direct state investment; and 4bn euros of investment by state-owned firms for modernising rail infrastructure, energy and the postal service.
The government expects that the stimulus package will produce economic growth of around 1.3%"

Because unlike the majority of our politicians, the French realize without those business's there are no jobs, or the furthering of job losses.
