No to NAMA Facebook page

http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=233861925262

There will be protests and thats where to get the info

Its clearly a bailout for the developers and banks. Buy up all the property from them and screw us for generations.


The taxpayer does not want a 30 year mortgage for every goddamn stinkin overpriced crappy apartment in the country :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

We only have weeks to oppose this!

Waken me up when there's a 'No to Facebook causes' page

C'mon everyone, sign up. It'll be graet fun, you can poke Liam Carroll, throw snowballs at Paddy Kelly and then do some celebrity lookalike quizzes.

I think that a facebook page will definately sort it all out.:rolleyes:

Ah yes internet petitions and anti-something or other Facebook pages. They really get the job done.

There was one with about 79 members, but it was asking for donations for some gay rights centre, so it's probably just some retarded attention grabbing scheme from someone who will spam you with gay rights stuff.

So I started one here.
I'm fully aware that it is in fact a Facebook cause, and that therefore it is stupid and a waste of my time, but that's time I would've just spent reading Boards anyway.

In fairness they're organising a protest through it, so if it works as a means to getting more people off their fat arses and onto the streets then it'll have accomplished something... Might even get onto reeling in the years 2009.

Interesting formatting in your post. Is there a logic behind it or is it just random use of the enter key every so often?

Just as a matter of interest............
Would we as a nation have been able to stage a world sports event ie Olympics, Soccer World Cup, Rugby World Cup or World Swimming Championships with the money that we are now spending on NAMA?

Well if they're organising real world stuff it's better than the usual nonsense.

I'm not on Facebook though, can I still go or will they be asking for login details at the assembly of the protest?

No. It's a different type of money altogether. Can't be used for sporting or cultural events.

Will put links for these sites on my site.

Causes - the new charity wristbands.

Not enough to make a small modest donation? Oh no, people need to see how caring you are. Ignore the fact that the medium through which you present your 'cause' represents the very structure you rail against.

Facebook represents NAMA now?

Look at the poster.

Not possible to take it seriously.
Looks like a load of internet warriors. Facebook people join groups because their friends do. Pointless!

I'm backing NAMA. I think its a good idea, banks need to be able to start lending again properly. The debt needs to be taken away from them. The government is trying to help kick start the economy from the ground up.

no, but we would have been able to go on one all mercyful bender.

I thought for a second that this thread was a petition against NAMA setting up their own Facebook page. That FB page would be even better!

Edited: I'm backing NAMA. I think its a good idea, banks need to be able to start lending squandering again.

Biggins

If they are trying to help the banks, why is every one of my business friends telling me that they still are having atrocious problems getting funds from their own banks - which they have been with for decades!

The money has been passed to the banks by the government now multiple times - but the banks as a further consequence IS NOT passing it down to the business people at local level!

You're not on faceboob? How do you stalk chicks?

I'm backing NAMA for a different reason, I think it will afford the oppurtunity for more sensible development in the future because large portions of zoned land will become the property of the state, that's assuming that it will be run correctly though (which it won't).

Yep it's great idea, massively overpay for worthless chunks of land and unsold developments in the back arse of nowhere, and stiff the taxpayer with the bill, brilliant. If done properly, NAMA has a chance, but with the current shower of incompetents, it hasn't a hope.

No, 'causes' in general. Presenting your plea for armchair social justice through a 'fat cat capitalist' website.

And similar contradictions.

I'm backing NAMA as it seems to be the only show in town. I have yet to hear of a decent alternative from any of the nay-sayers. I've heard some nonsense that a run on the banks would be a great way to solve this problem.:rolleyes: I would prefer if it was more transparent though!

Dankoozy

There should be a "No to Facebook" page

i fooking hate facebook

I thought it was called NAMBLA?

There is nothing capitalist about NAMA.

I'd tend to agree, letting the banks fail isn't an option. It is the Implementation of NAMA that should have you worried though, the NAMA Bill is as watertight a sieve.

I wasn't talking specifically about NAMA, but since you brought it up - what?

Of course NAMA is 'capitalist' - it emerged in response to the effects of a global financial crisis involving significant movements of Irish capital and accumulation of debt....?

I've been saying that one to people over the last while and nobody gets it so I gave up. Guess nobody else cares about Marlon Brando lookalikes as much as we do.

Long Onion

I'm against NAMA but only because it's an anagram of NAAM, and none of you realise the true horrors of NAAM 'CAUSE YOU WEREN'T THERE MAN, YOU WEREN'T THERE ...!!!!!!!!!

On a more serious note, we're goosed if we do and goosed if we don't can we just go for the cheapest option?

No, we had them running the country for decades already and, based on the Ryan report, it didn't work out too well so we'd be better off going with the Marlon Brando lookalikes this time.

No way am I joining this. The NAMA jingle has got me hook, line and sinker. I love NAMA
