French President Francois Hollande’s initiative to impose higher taxes on the rich suffered a setback after the country’s Constitutional Council on Saturday rejected the proposal, media reports said.
The French government had put up the measure to impose a tax rate as high as 75 percent on the country’s rich people, making them contribute more to the ongoing effort to reduce the public debt. The proposal, which was the highlight of Hollande’s election campaign, called for 75 percent tax on annual income above EUR 1 million.
The government is planning to redraft the proposal to impose high tax on the rich and resubmit it in a new budget law. The rejection of the measures will have likely cut EUR300-500 million from the forecast tax revenues next year, sources said.

I truly do take pleasure in writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are usually lost just trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or hints? Thanks!

ハロー。僕は明後日で21歳と11カ月になります。そして夏日が多い日になりました。ですからやっぱりいらない毛は除毛したいですよね。最近は、全国に脱毛エステがいっくらでもあります。やりたい場所は、個人差が、特に多いのは胸です。私は、人気店のメンズTBCで脱毛しています。そのおかげで、だいぶムダ毛が減っています。やはり一人で処理するのとは、違います。もう少しメンズTBCに脱毛しにいってムダ毛をなくしたいです。でも、医療クリニックに通ったとしても怖いのが脱毛にかかる料金です。それについては、スタッフに聞けばいいでしょう。それと気になるのが、長い間通わないといけないのかです。うちはできれば、一年くらいで完全に終わってくれると嬉しいです。まあ、今から行く人はカウンセリングしてみましょう。
