France is set to make decisive political choices in the coming year. On one side stands a nationalist right wing on the rise, increasingly aligned with business interests, aiming to take power by stigmatizing immigration and foreigners. In its bag of tricks: anti-immigrant referendums promising to « give the people their voice back. » Faced with this, the left dithers, hesitates, is divided and stammers. To clarify its own stance and unite its ranks, the left must propose a referendum to adopt a national solidarity tax targeting billionaires and centimillionaires. Given the current state of debate and the stakes involved, this is the best way to resolve the issue. The right wants to give the people more control over matters of identity and immigration. The left should do the same, but focus on solidarity and justice.
