Why do you even try? It doesn't make any sense to me. Moving to the UK or Scandinavia would be trivially easy, and you'd instantly find yourself in a super business friendly environment compared to France. Is it the food?

Generally, yes. The quality of life in France is very high. If you are employed by a big company or the state, you can have a perfect life.

But from the day you create a company, you discover problems one by one. My first startup was French and I still love living in Paris. But I'm pretty sure, unless things change, that I'll move out as most of my friends did.
