Where does all the money come from

Governments do not 'create' money by borrowing on the bond market. They access it. Same as you or I do when we borrow money.

they use taxation to take money from us to repay bond borrowings so that they will be able to borrow again in the future.

Money is only created by governments when they print it (via central banks/fed/ecb), but Ireland cannot do that as it gave this facility to the ECB.

this is the neoclassical 'model' of money creation, and it is completely wrong. once again, the two main methods of money creation are governments via bond markets, and banks via credit creation, hence the use of the term, 'governments are not like a house hold', as they have the ability to create money, and households do not, i.e. its why the whole idea of balancing budgets is pure bullsh1t, and in fact is dangerous. each euro zone central bank do in fact create a small proportion of the money supply, in the form of hard currencies, coins and notes, this includes the irish central bank, so also wrong here. yes, by joining the euro, we handed the ecb the majority of our money creation abilities over, but not all our abilities, as discussed. we could also create other methods of our own money creation via our own network of public banks, as some euro zones counties already have, but since theres very little understanding of this, theres virtually no drive to do so. one again, globally, the largest supplier of our money supply comes from private sector financial institutions, i.e. banks, in the form of credit, once again, this can be clearly seen in the graph included. and just for clarification, once again you re wrong, banks actually create the majority of our money supply, and not central banks, but normal job soap commercial banks, when loans are taken out, hence the 08 crash. oh and for good measure, heres the research from central banks supporting all of this

6.90 for Guinness, in the suburbs of Dublin, really?

we had a much much smaller economy then, far less complex, we werent as integrated into the world economy, we werent as exposed to highly extractive elements such as the fire sectors. i think our overall health care needs are also far more complex, therefore costly, now, id say theres layers and layers of complexity occurring

its an unstable form of investment, bitcoin does not meet the criteria of money, its just a high risk investment, some are becoming millionaires and billionaires from it, while others are losing their bollcoks, particularly during pump and dump events

Obviously the solution to both nations troubles is for to facilitate Irish migration to Japan.

Everyone will get cancer, assuming they live long enough.

yes and no, its ultimately the fact we have allowed major sectors, in particular the fire sectors(finance, insurance and real estate), to dictate and dominate our economies, whereby their main objectives have been, and still are, to maximize utility, i.e. maximize their profits, why our property markets are wrecked. in turn we have also been continually electing governments whos main aims have been to maintain this status quo.

the only way out of this is to make our governments take back some element of control of this process, the current housing proposal by the looks of it, is a step in the right direction, as a large proportion of the finances required, will be coming from public finances, and not from the preferred fire sector approach of credit from private sector financial institutions, i.e. banks, but i still expect the fire sectors to get heavily involved, for their pounds of flesh, and they probably will.
