The Yellow Vests protests have entered their fourth week, the direct cause being the fuel price increase that the French Government has just decided to implement. However, the deep root of the problem lies in the huge gap between the rich and the poor, the unfair tax policy between social classes, and the development gap between the capital and some large cities with the rest of the hexagonal country.
To ease the situation, the French Government has decided to postpone the increase in petrol prices and yesterday French President Emmanuel Macron officially spoke out, making promises on several issues, including increasing the minimum income for people by 100 euros/month...
This movement not only took place in France but also spread to several other European countries (Italy, Belgium...).

Obviously, fuel prices or even the minimum wage of French workers in particular, and European workers in general, are no longer the main issues of the movement against European governments. Behind that, or to be exact, the deep root, the foundation of the anger among the poor people are deep social contradictions that have accumulated for a long time.
The Yellow Vest movement is a fairly comprehensive crisis in France, from economic to social, it threatens not only the stability of France but also the European Union, because there has been a request for Frexit...
