Say Margaret Cash or the dishonest people screwing the claim system or people out begging or stealing from shops or just sitting at home on the dole. These people have no interest in society because society had no interest in them until it was too late. Children are being dragged up by parents all over the country. These parents were probably dragged up or have mental issues or addiction problems or god knows what. Why would a child who has grown through that suddenly hit working age and then decide modern society is great and they have to toe the line to keep things civilized. Why wouldn’t they favor disorder over order. At least during disorder they have a chance of getting ahead. What other option is there for the son of a traveller? A job in tesco? A token acting job on a few rte dramas? Society is an opt in thing and with all the waste in the public service why would these outsiders think society is a good thing to buy into. This whole set up only works if the majority people get something out of it and what seems to be happening is less and less people are doing well out of society and more people are suffering. My dad was a manaul worker and could buy a house. His father was a plasterer and he had a house in a nice area. I’m a plumber and through some lucky breaks managed to buy a house but lads I work with are really struggling to pay rent and tread water. At what point will a large number of people say ah feck this and check out of life as we know it and start trying to just take what they want?
