France's massive strikes are costing the national economy up to euro400 million ($562 million) each day, the French finance minister said Monday, as workers continued to block ports, oil refineries and trash incineration plants to protest a plan to raise the retirement age to 62. Nearly 10,000 tons of garbage have been piling up in southern Marseille and its suburbs. (AP Photo/Laurent Cipriani)
