What he is saying is that there should be no need for collusion because French law would enforce the Agency Model.
And this is another example of why it is that I am happy to live in the US. We have our issues (it is qute a list) but I would hate to have the VAT tax at its silly level and government ministers who are fine with the idea of limiting competition in favor of saving smaller businesses. While the US is not close to a pure capitlaist economy, I prefer our system to what many European countries have embraced.
Although I really like how maternity leave is handled in Norway right about now but I can't see myself justifying paying that much in tax and for beer to allow me to take that much time off with my baby boy.
