When business goes well it is normal that many people earn much more money

An air of the presidential fleet economic discourse that Nicolas Sarkozy must decide this evening in Toulon. The head of State will speak solemnly before 4,000 people that he had not since 2007 much of the Government to the first ranks. several advisors have been mobilized to work on the text, starting with Henri Guaino, "pen" of the President in the campaign. And far from defusing waiting on his speech, Nicolas Sarkozy it himself on his trip to New York, Monday and Tuesday, delivering very strong against "those responsible" phrases of the international financial crisis, but without offering solutions. "When business goes well, it is normal that many people earn much more money." "But when the business goes bad, it is normal that those who are so heavily mistaken to assume the consequences and responsibilities," he said. PS also took the word yesterday, by the voice of Julien Dray, asking him to give effect to the application of regulation.

A learned mystery

But, for the President of the Republic, the substance is not, today, to a series of announcements: he intends to make a speech which fixed cap and give coherence to its action. With two goals. First show that the economic and financial difficulties did not prevent him to find margins of manoeuvre: it instead faithful to his maxim "when things go wrong, I speeds." "It will show that there is a captain at the helm, that he made at the international, with positive effects on the polls, he will do internally," said a Minister near him. Instead of launching of the scattered measures we must not think a second that the question of purchasing power rule with the announcement of new cheques", stated yesterday Jean-François Copé , the head of State should focus on the reforms of structures: the adjustment of the work (via RSA) reform territorial communities or even the senior public service management.

Second emergency: reassure its majority, particularly désarçonnée by economic and ecological school choice. The RSA and its funding through a levy on revenue from capital is particularly affected. The Grenelle of the environment is, even if the Executive attempted to defuse the grumbling by abandoning the creation of green taxes. Since the arrival of Nicolas Sarkozy, misunderstandings of its majority are recurring on the paths of its policy and its incursions in the land of left: but they took a new magnitude in recent weeks with the fear of the elect to see the head of State forget its promises, including taxation.

Show that it is part of the right line of his campaign, but open new pathways to adapt to the economic situation; reassure the UMP parliamentarians, for example giving a signal to the middle classes, bringing in them, by pedagogy, to join its design of a "modern right": it may be because the task is difficult that the Elysee Palace has maintained a learned mystery on the speech of Nicolas Sarkozy. A fortiori on the eve of the presentation of an act of finance 2009 who recalled how the budgetary margins of manoeuvre are narrow.
