00:00 Behind the scenes, it's our bills that are on fire, and we're not going to keep looking elsewhere for a very long time.
00:05 THE NEW SHIT
00:08 Elizabeth Borne has barely saved her head when a new threat is already pointing to the terminus of the troubles,
00:14 as her former director of the Cabinet and now Minister of Health Aurelien Rousseau has nicely described "the hell of Matignon".
00:22 These new troubles are the return of the rich life.
00:25 If the media agenda is for the moment dominated by the wave of suffocating heat that is seizing the south of Europe,
00:31 the wind could quickly turn.
00:33 Because behind the scenes, it's our bills that are on fire, and we're not going to keep looking elsewhere for a very long time.
00:39 It's simple, the list of EEOs is extending like Mercury under the sun of the Acropolis.
00:44 +10% on the electricity bill to be counted on August 1, after +15% in February,
00:51 probable increases in the Navigo pass at the start of the year, taxes increases to come in the next budget.
00:57 Bercy has just launched a test ball on the increase in taxes on alcohol, for example,
01:03 but also expenses decreases with a doubling of the moderate ticket on visits to the general practitioner.
01:09 All this without counting the increase in rates, except for the remuneration of the booklet that has just been frozen,
01:15 or a two-digit inflation that remains two-digit on food products.
01:19 Clearly, the returns are no longer warm, they are expensive.
01:22 The state has not stayed out of it, of course, alone, the tariff shield on electricity
01:28 cost €40 billion between 2022 and 2023 to protect households, companies and local communities.
01:36 And today, we can rejoice, France benefits from the electricity tariffs among the lowest in Europe.
01:43 But there is no magic money, which the consumer saves on the one hand,
01:47 the taxpayer will end up paying it on the other.
01:50 The only way out, more work, more growth, for more recipes.
01:54 Because with the essential but very expensive ecological transition,
01:58 we are only at the beginning of the history of expensive life.
02:01 It is probably one of the biggest challenges for an executive on the Red Cross.
