The left hates responsibility.
The left hates George Bush.
The left hates the concept that if a society wants to eat, it must work.
Ergo, the left must REALLY, REALLY, REALLY hate Ireland.
Didn't realize it, but Ireland will soon surpass the US in income per capita.
What did you expect when you implement an economic system based in reality?

Ireland also gets a big boost from their attractive tax-haven status. Economic activity is siphoned away from other countries to Ireland to enjoy the tax advantage.
We see a similar efect with Bermuda and Cayman relative to the USA. Set up your holding company (or hedge fund) in Cayman or Bermuda and sell your "goods" in the US (but make sure that your profits are made at the offshore company) and pay little or no US taxes.
Of course, the lost tax revenue increases the US budget deficit and ultimately the taxes that the rest of us must pay.
Then maybe we should lower our taxes and attract some of those businesses back. Or maybe we could stop spending taxes on all of the wonderfully wasteful government (sorry for being redundent) programs that were never meant to be.
Why would the left hate George Bush? He's a flaming socialist!
Ah, but he's not their socialist, so not hating him isn't an option.
Americans owe a great deal of respect and admiration for any Irish people living in the US, We have fought in wars and died for your country and so have the Black community so how dare you post such bigotry, Ireland came from nothing and is now the 15th wealthiest country in the world from hard work and grit but because your government goes around bullying smaller and poorer countries ye think then that we should hate them! Remember all white Americans once originated from Europe and your ancestors did so they could make a new start aswell!!!!!
Anon-
I only posted you comment because out of all the comments and posts that have been on this blog (and I'm being serious here, I'm not just saying it), your comment is the DUMBEST of them all.
No shit Sherlock!
Read the freaking post. I'm exalting Ireland. I'm a big fan of Ireland. I am Irish.
it's idiots like you who can't read that, if it's possible, give us Irish a bad name.
Now shut up.
wow wow guys no need to fight, sure Ireland gets a lot of business due to the whole tax thing, however there is a lot of history in Ireland, such as the northern troubles etc. Basically what im say is
