no wonder Ireland is in the toilet

shinzon

Was flicking channels and happened to land on Ireland AM, and i cant believe in this day and age in a recession with cutbacks job losses pension levies etc that there is a family in Ireland that is getting 3800 euro a month in benefits and believe this is not enough money for them, plasma screens in the house etc etc

It beggars belief that the welfare system is allowing them to get away with it while theres talks of cutting the dole for the ordinary joe soap

It seems like a lot but look at the number of kids they have, consider that a lot of this is rent allowance too - it's not as much as you would believe.

I personally believe that no-one should get money for nothing, there are plenty of schools etc to be built so let people work for the money but i do have an issue with media sensationalism.

For a second I thought the title was meant to be self-referential.

Agreed. Until we learn the difference between plural and singular nouns we're never going to fight our way out of this recession.

thats well above the average wage.... about 43000 grand or something a year! with no tax!! Unless she has more than 8 kids, thats a ****ing disgrace.

There are families struggling on alot less than that.

In this country you have to be rich, or poor.

The normal Joes in the middle get screwed.

Why do poor spellers have the most reactionary opinions?

I'd love to see a study with some empirical data on this.

That said, the Revenue system does need to be overhauled. But don't get your opinions from Ireland AM, it's a really poor show.

Thats over 45000 in benefits... thats where the bloody problem is with the country! If the parents are willing to have that many kids they should be fu*kin made look after them themselves.. plasma screens indeed.

theres a wonan beside me got 22 kids wonder how much she gets, they knocked three houses into one for her but that still only gives them 10 bedrooms, before you ask there are three sets of triplets and three sets of twins.

With that many kids she'd need an extension onto her extension until the house goes around in a circle.

If we're paying her way then the word for the day is sterilised.

For someone complaining about unemployed people.
I would be quite interested in why you were at home at that time of the day-considering it is the first working day of the week.
