The Budget; After Hours style

ringadingding

Rip up all current public sector upper management and politicians contracts, and re start them at new more realistic rates.

Give an amnesty for all people who have been falsely claiming, they come clean, no problem, it's forgotten about. But from 1st Jan, offer a reward for shopping fraudsters, a nice fat 250 quid per person proven to be defrauding the state, 500 reward if you can provide concrete evidence.
Anyone caught falsely claiming, simple, they get nothing, and nothing means nothing, they get one chance to come clean.


90% of fraudsters caught by march I would say.

reduce the dole by a bit.

Means test child benefit, any household earning over 60k does not get it as normal, but insteaf any household earning between 60 - 100k gets 50 % into an education fund for the child, earn over 100 k, you get nothing. under 60k you get it as normal.

Decrease the dole every year, after 5 years you get nothing, unless you are disabled in some way.

I once gambled and lost €1000 over the course of a few hours in the bookies one day.. I demand that those who won money on that same day pay more tax than me in order to cover my losses!

Sorry, but there is no logical reason whatsoever that those living at home while working should have to pay any new fangled tax.

thats what anyone on the dole / having mortgage difficulties saying 'tax the rich' is basically saying

Yep.

You're missing the point. We are all being taken up the ass now, it doesn't matter who is responsible. We need to meet our budgetary targets and people who have it handy at home are ripe for the picking.

I would introduce a masturbation tax

for each **** you give 50p to the goverment, this will help to generate incum and reduce cases of blindness as well

fryup

^^^^^^^^^^^^^

that could be a sticky one

twincamman

will the VAT go up straight away or january the 1st

SmartHass

Does it really matter, whatever way we get shafted, we'll piss and moan on radio call-ins and Frontline etc but essentially we will bend over and take it.

Even if we were to take to the streets what are our demands exactly, 'dont take money off me, take it off him or her' the damage is done, we are fecked as far as I know and austerity and debt repayment is the only way out, Its now an issue for our elected representitives and there is NOTHING we can do.

If there is anything we can actually do then im happy to hear it.

All Irish speakers to pay an appropriately high rate of tax to fund duplicating documents, bilingual roadsigns, window grants etc.

best suggestion so far. If they want Irish, they can pay for it.

You never see anyone paying money for an irish language magazine or book in a newsagent / bookshop. Yet the Irish bloody language costs the country over a billion a year between extra printing costs, translaters, road signs, ec language dup[lication costs etc

Maybe that's what they're on about when they tell us we all have to pull together to help the economy.

Should be the reverse. I can hardly speak any Irish, but I would have made an effort if I knew I could talk to others frequently using it.

haha, I love the idea of making it financially incentivised to report frauding. Why would this NOT be implemented? People are asked to do it for free, yet it risks a ****storm on thier doorstep if they are ever found out, suspected, or socially frowned upon if admitted. Making it financially appealing, and i bet it would become the social norm quickly.

Whatever about the other taxes and price hikes, if a masturbation tax was introduced, that would get me out on the street, marching outside the dail.
