Best Answer

Louis XVI was known widely for his indecisive nature, he was pushed around by his ministers and allowed them to take advantage of him. His economic strategies were poor; he dismissed Jacques Necker for social reasons. He and his court (yes including Marie Antoinette) were not the extravagent spenders that history has embellished for us, but rather they spent their money on charity (good quality) but did not promote this above the Jacobin propoganda of the time, portraying them as the monarchs we hear about today.
