Is Marxism the cause of France's riots?

I stumbled across this excellent essay on the net that looks into the issue of Marxism as a cause of the rioting going on in France. The author compares the Asian immigrates to America to the Arab and African immigrates to France. Her hyphothis is that both sets of immigrants come from backwards, repressive, and agrigrian countries. Yet the Asian immigrates seem to thrive while the Arab/African immigrates in France stagnate.

She looks at France's socialist system as the cause, because it removes all incentives to get educated, work hard, and make something of yourself.

Very interesting. Well worth the 10 minutes or so it takes to read it!
