“Not the Bears, optimists”
“Life Salary”, “democracy by lot”, “lower high income”, “employment of all unemployed,” “global destruction of the capitalist system”, the claims are diverse and the participants succeeded megaphone during the general meeting which lasted over two hours.
“Are utopians among us? “Interviewed one of them. And reinventing public applause, waving hands in the air in response.
“We’re not Care Bears, one is optimistic, the world we dream of, it’s there,” enthused a young woman.

They demand the government’s resignation
Some dreamed of “rewriting the constitution” and called for “the resignation of the government.”
This spontaneous movement emerged in the wake of rallies called by trade unions, students and high school students demanding the withdrawal of the bill on labor.
But the movement also aggregates, under the hashtag #NuitDebout on social networks, other political or social demands. And many participants see it as the beginning of a phenomenon as informal “movement Occupy ” born in different countries, or like the indignados from Puerta del Sol, appeared in 2011 in Madrid to denounce austerity and corruption.
Every morning since Friday, dozens of demonstrators were evicted by police before returning to occupy the place.
