I agree that developers in France are rather underpaid, but you're comparing apples to oranges.

A lower French salary comes with a number of valuable benefits which makes the take-home pay difference much smaller than what you're saying : https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13412599

None of those points really apply though.

U.S. engineers generally get excellent healthcare coverage already.

As a non-French citizen the pension system is worthless to me.
