Out of curiosity: What is/was your motivation behind this and how does it correlate to elections?<p>My baseline assumption looking at this is that in all of these numbers, there are massive systematic, global - and hence exogenous to France or any single state - forces at play (like globalization, the Financial crisis and the following decade of inflationary money printing) which shape most of these indicators.<p>Showing election dates of French presidents looks like a classic and rather obvious case of correlation does not imply causation.<p>Might well be that I don't have the full picture though and I was not following French campaigns. Is there a public debate/ general public opinion in France that presidents had significant influence on these indicators shown?
A trending subject in France, and worldwide, is the inflation.<p>It would be interesting to build an inflation calculator for France.<p>Example of a website on inflation:
