Excellent summary of the Programme. I expect we will soon see riots in the streets of Dublin.

An increase in the carbon tax

Yeah, that'll help... /s

Yeah, with cuts in minimum wage and employee benefit provisions, I’m sure Irish laborers will be eager to effect change from the current. Nigel Farage now has even more ammunition against the EU.

For those of us who are caught up in our own critical projects back here in the states, can someone describe who responsible human beings are supposed to root for here?

Is it a case of the Irish Populace, voting for spendthrift politicians, needing to be forced to cut back expenses? In this scenario, “defaulting” on their debt is a moral wrong. Nobody would trust loaning the Irish money for multiple generations.

Or is it that those calling for cut backs are also manipulating the whole currency system? Or are using it as an opportunity to force global socialism down the Irish throat? In this scenario, defaulting is a moral good.

Or is it a mix of the two?

Thanks.

Back to the ‘poor Irish’ again. Perhaps this immigration would be welcome.
