| Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 1112869 Ireland09/28/2010 08:13 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The establishment is using nonsensical economic jargon to suggest all this is 'manageable'. But it really isn't. You know when a zombie bank like Anglo Irish causes the Euro to drop in value, the ripples are becoming like waves. Soon a tsunami will engulf us. |

Traveler  User ID: 1101797  United States09/28/2010 08:15 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Thank you for sharing. We are right behind you. It has not come apart here to the extent that it will due to the dollar being the world's currency. But that is changing, quickly. A question if I may. Is the economy really bad already? Do you see it going the way of Greece? |

| BRIEF AND TO THE POINT User ID: 381742 United States09/28/2010 08:46 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Potato republic... Poor people do poor people things, and rich people do rich people things. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it! when you rob Paul to give to Peter ... ... ... you will always get Peters support! :Brieffromnativea: |

Hell, most of them would be on the street if the taxpayers didn't subsidize their rent payments. But they can sure party hardy. Pleasure, booze, food, drugs first, then anything left over can pay bills, MAYBE. They fucking collapsed the housing industry, and the ENTIRE FUCKING GLOBE is still reeling from that fiasco.

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 1107716 United States09/28/2010 09:28 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Ireland will be find. Its the useless eating scum that makes their living off of the fruits the Irish produce. Sure some can't take care of themselves but once the government collapse the extra money around from not paying 'taxes' will make it easy to take care of those people. BARTER & TRADE like the good ole' days Just make sure you have some silver around to trade with in the beginning, while the govt. breaks away and a new currency develops. It will make trade go that much more smoothly. Never let the government or the media fool you into thinking 'your' going to collapse when your the one thats working! Those be lies. The people have the skills, the people do the work, and the people will be fine. |
