Casey has done a very good service in this campaign .

Its up to each individual to decide what TRUTH is and not have it decided by the Political and Media Establishment .

Thank you Mr Casey .

Do you give your salary to charity? No? Does that mean you’re greedy too?

Like I said you’re a fool if you believe for one second PC won’t take what he’s entitled to.

If I my job afforded me a free luxurious mansion, 24hr security, hoardes of private attentive staff, including drivers, florists, chefs and what have you, an annual unvouched expense budget of more than 300k, and use of cars/jets/convoys , and I was entitled to a few hefty pensions on top of all that,.....

I think I could struggle on without the salary. Though sackcloth and ashes I may be.

Atoms for Peace · 26-10-2018 07:57AM

Mickey D is getting my number 6.

pjohnson · 26-10-2018 07:58AM

I suppose people also believe Casey WILL leave after 5 years 100%

Maybe you could but I very much doubt that you would.

Nor would I expect you to. You’re allowed to to be paid for your job.

Absolutely.

Same way I believed Michael D wouldn't contest a second term.

Slightly more than I believe the other candidates would have no issues with living next to a halting site.

Yes just like they believe he won’t accept the salary to which he is entitled and that he’s some sort of savior.

It’s a bit pathetic how people are fawning all over him because of one comment.

No one's saying they wouldn't or shouldn't be paid for the job, it's just Higgins has made millions from the taxpayer's, while for almost 50 years has travelled around in the lapse of luxuries pontificating about his socialist views and how he is a socialist member.

Do you get the point now?

And where do think Casey’s millions come from? Where does the money you make come from?

Is he not allowed to change his mind?

Self Made Millionaire, private market.

Where does the money you make come from?

I hardly think that's anyone's business but mine, less I was to stand for public office

Of course he is.

Even if it takes him 7 years of luxurious surroundings to do so.

You’re missing the point completely. Every bit of money that passes through your hands and mine comes from taxes.

Complaining that the wealthy make money from taxpayers makes no sense because they pay taxes too and we all make money from other peoples taxes.

Lose the holier than thou attitude will you. It’s doing you no favors.

In between the 5 million astroturfers telling us that they, and every person they've ever known, are voting for casey.

Can I remind people to vote yes in the referendum.

This is some funked up logic.

A self employed individual, a PAYE employee, or a business owner in the private sector have made their money from the tax collected from the exchequer

Could you by any chance dissect this a bit, and explain it a bit more for me, I'm genuinely interested in this theory.

Why would I bother arguing with someone who’s decided they’re right.

Vote for whoever you want Johnny. Just do it fit the right reasons.

I'm not arguing - far from it, I just want to be able to cover my tail should anyone accuse me of gaining anything i own from the money collected via tax, rather than through my own hard work and initiative.

You appear to not want to explain this theory, and I think I know why.

It's more holes in it than a sieve.

Don’t you think our president works extremely hard especially for a man his age?

Why do you think Casey will be any different? He’s not a saint you know.

So you're calling them insane now? I don't think Casey even went that far. I think they prefer the term Travellers btw...

Dress it up and demean it how you like. The surge in Casey's popularity is down to the frustration the middle classes feel in working hard to fund those who choose not to work. People are sick of spending thousand each year they can ill afford to allow others a bone idle lifestyle.

The average industrial wage is about 36k. If you earn twice the average industrial wage, you still won't take home as much as Margaret Cash. That is astonishing, and really bugs the majority of honest, hardworking people.

Call it whatever you want, but the frustration is genuine and justified.

Absolutely spot on. Peter Casey had the balls to call it as it is and he will certainly be getting my vote no question. Do we seriously need another 7 years of higgins been president? i have a massive problem what with his salary, lifestyle, lear jet, expensive hotels and idiots in this country are going to vote him in again!! We have people living on the streets, serious overcrowding in our hospitals, health service in tatters and people struggling day to day and this we are going to vote for someone who would not come clean about his spending. We deserve what we get because we are a spinless nation and go with the flow..

Giving up his salary is not admirable, stuff like that makes it only a job for multi millionaires.

I'll vote for Casey but in spite of things like that.

The cost of running a campaign means it's only for the elite, or those backed by the elite.

Giving up the wage is admirable as it shows you aren't in it to earn another few million, unlike Mickey D.
