What a great opportunity to compare a piece of France with a piece of the US!
Le Figaro - Conjoncture : Le débat sur « la faillite » de la France relancé
Both France and the US need a way for ordinary citizens, even of the reasonably intelligent sort, to be able to really understand issues like this. It should not be left for so much variation and uncertainty. Reasonable judgment is needed in order to promote some core understanding, in my view.

L'aéroport de Nice franchit le cap historique des 11 millions de passagers en 2012 | Nice-Matin
So the rough comparison is that RDU in NC and Nice Airport in France see about (ballpark) the same number of passengers every year. Nice is above 11,000,000 for 2012, an 8% increase. For RDU, the last year of complete numbers is 2011 with about 9,200,000, as reported here.The numbers posted for 2012 so far suggest no huge change in this. To be more specific, Nice seems to be about 15% higher than RDU.
