There were many economic impacts leading to the French Revolution. Before the French Revolution, France was in the French and Indian War. They were in a lot of debt because they had to pay their war debts. So the King had no choice but to charge taxes to raise more money. The Commoners which were apart of the 3rd Estate was at the lowest part of the Estates (less wealthy). They had to pay majority of the taxes. The Nobles (2nd estate) and the Clergy (1st Estate) were free from obligation. The Commoners were very upset that they were paying most of the taxes and very upset at the fact that the Nobles and Clergy barely had to pay anything. The Commoners had to survive off of the pity that the King presented. So they ate bread, but bread was very expensive. Which caused starvation and hunger.
