Its a remake of The Magnificent Seven and it can be seen as the people rising up against Communism since Grasshoppers take without paying. Under Capitalism you at least get paid for your work and what you produce. Under communism you might get paid (with nothing to buy) but the state just takes the farmers produce, even if it means starving the farmers (see Holodomor, or just any communist country, except present day China which has abandoned it in all but name)

The French system has NOT worked for 200 years. Its been interspersed with military strongmen (Napoleon) Reactionary Kings (Louis XVIII, Charles X), Middle or the road King (Louis Phillippe), Populist President then Emperor after a coup (Napoleon III), a Grandstanding Quasi Dictator (Charles De Gaulle)

Before I answer; First the majority of people in the military and not in combat units, Second you can get medical training for free if you agree to serve in the military. Now the main answer; the reason military training is free is because the military serves the state, while doctors, nurses and paramedics serve individual citizens

Actually It derives from Middle French "caisse" (Money Box) which is from Old Italian "Cassa" and then from Latin "Capsa" (Box)

Everyone hates Nazis, in fact where would we be without them? Who could we use to make completely unfair comparisons with against those we don't agree with?
BTW comparing someone who disagrees with Gay Marriage with Nazis is like saying those who support Gay Marriage also support Pedophilia and Bestiality. A ridiculous comparison on both sides

I'm fine with Gay Marriage, but being against it isn't evil, just their opinion, more important is how one acts

So if a white candidate said something like that about black voters "... they cling to their Rap music and Basketball..." that would be fine?

The same Obama who said "Referring to working-class voters in old industrial towns decimated by job losses, the presidential hopeful said: "They get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations." - The Guardian
