“He said he would stress opportunity and making a ‘deep break with the past’ — by proposing significant change to #France's social model — in his 2007 campaign. On economic issues, Sarkozy reprised many of his now familiar policy themes: France’s economic model holds back growth; people need to work more and be rewarded for doing so; and people need to be told the truth about the economic situation. He was upbeat about France’s future if the country seized the opportunity that reforms could bring. He also tossed out a few of the ‘policy zingers’ for which he is well known, notably ‘The European Central Bank confuses a strong currency with a strong economy,’ and ‘France needs to do what #Reagan did in the U.S., #Thatcher in Britain, and Gonzales in Spain.’”
