    According to http://businessetc.thejournal.ie/weekly-earnings-cso-2-1057760-Aug2013/

    "Weekly earnings in the public sector, including semi-state companies rose by 1.3 per cent in the year to the end of June, bringing average weekly earnings to €928.76. There was a one per cent rise in the private sector in the same period, putting weekly earnings at €623.17."

    We're still borrowing €1billion a month because our costs outstrip our income. We have tax, after tax, after tax being introduced so we can balance the books.

    I know it seems very strange in this bloody country, but how about cutting some of the friggin' costs for a change!!!!
