Debate on mandatory levies and tax competitiveness in France

On October 27, 2026, Dominique Schelcher, CEO of Coopérative U, proposes to review the overall cost of social protection in the wage debate, while a business owner denounces the "tax fatigue" of French entrepreneurs. On October 28, France appears as the European country with the highest mandatory levy rate in 2025, ahead of Denmark and Belgium. On October 29, France is ranked last in the OECD for tax competitiveness by the Tax Foundation, which cites a complex and highly taxed system. The same day, Benoît Perrin, director of Contribuables Associés, calls for a reduction or even abolition of the CSG on earned income, and Jean-Claude Bourrelier, founder of Bricorama, advocates a cut in social contributions to raise wages, in the context of the presidential campaign.
