The French Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin has launched a project that will involve removing silt from the island of Mont Saint Michel and the mainland. The project is expected to cost 150 million euros ($190 million).
Who cares if Victor Hugo said, “It must remain an island.” Couldn’t they be spending this amount of money for something that carries a bit more weight in say, SIGNIFICANCE? or IMPORTANCE??! For example, R&D/production for sustainable energy sources, taking care of the poor, cleaning up their environmental disasters properly, helping businesses, providing continuing education for the immigrants in France. Oh wait, they’re trying to get rid of them.
