In fact, she did much to help out the poor, canceling certain taxes, making other financial reforms and selling off much of the royal flatware to buy food to distribute to the poor. It was, in fact, the nobility who were against these reforms that helped those less fortunate. They chose instead,as royal hopefuls to spread scandalous stories which simply weren't true, including the statement, "let them eat cake."Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08423696800295940382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32203051.post-31009457780412824362009-03-09T14:15:00.000-07:002009-03-09T14:15:00.000-07:00Peter, Thanks.
