France's workers are rioting in the streets because they're continuously being squeezed by France's elites with higher and higher costs of living. That's not the exact same thing as monetary mismanagement and money-printing, which turned Venezuela into hyperinflation heaven, with its million-percent inflation, or whatever the figure is now, but it comes close, because higher costs of living are inflationary even without a clown show going on at the central bank.
