> Regarding the taxes, deal with it. full disclosure: I'm french and I like the healthcare system.

Sure.. How long will it last?

> VAT is not painful at all, even an accountant fresh out from school could handle this easily. Protip, hire an accountant. If you're a business, VAT is transparent for you. It only impacts french customers.

It's a myth. Companies pay VAT, you pay 19,60% of the value added by your company.

> You don't have to declare every website to the government, you declare it to the CNIL which is an independent administrative body whose goal is to protect data privacy. I like them too.

They haven't stop PRISM. Nothing is independent, the CNIL gets its money from state taxes, it's government.

> Why setting up a business in France if you only see the drawbacks of being here?

I am from france.

> Though I agree with you on the bullshit part. This incubator is a total waste of money

We agree on something! :)
