Establish a foundation to fund good archaeological and historical research. Perhaps the conservation of particularly good old buildings too. Link them in with an education / experiential learning programme so that local schoolkids and adults could learn about the past of their own locality.
Establish Driver's Ed in every secondary school for TY and senior cycle.
Establish a network of small practice tracks for motorsports / drifting etc. around the country which would be located so as to be (a) as accessible as possible yet (b) as remote as possible from residential areas. Make them available at a very nominal fee / through some kind of club set-up provided participants undertake an advanced driving programme (available on site) within a specified time of joining.
Establish a National Museum of Greed and Corruption on Inis Mhic Uileáin. Encourage the Dáil to establish a "community service programme" for politicians, bankers, developers, etc., shown to have been instrumental in getting the country into the shítty state it's in. Pay the state a daily bounty for each inmate. Community service to consist of 6 hours per day in the stocks getting lambasted. Free boat-trips to be laid on from the mainland to ensure that there would be a constant supply of ordinary citizens with strong throwing arms.
I could do this all night ...

Buy the M3, close it, buy the security guys off Iarnrod Eireann, get them to "persuade" the previous landowners to hand back the money they got off the Irish taxpayer and then convert it into a railway to Navan, Cavan, Enniskillen and Donegal. One carriageway can be an alternative to the old N3. Should be sufficent space on it

1. A few Skyscapers and more development projects around the country.
2. Invest a good bit more in every part of the Defence Forces. Bigger and more capable Army, Navy and Air Corps. I'd also contribute some cash towards the development of the F-35.
3. My favourite development: A fake mini city somwhere in Dublin solely for Airsofting, and another for Paintballing. Very cheap if not free entry, open all hours + access to everywhere inside it. In it there'd be estates, towers, forts, high rises, streets, no-mans-land areas with trenches, old army and burnt out vehicles... you name it. Throw in a few hundred / thousand players, divide them into teams, let them do what they want or give objectives, scatter them around the place and it would be good to go. Think that'd be great fun and would attract worldwide attention and countless tourist players.
4. Fund an Irish Sea Tunnell to connect Ireland to GB.
5. More investment in renewable energy projects and funding of more oil and gas exploration in Irish coastal waters.
6. Some large car assembling plants, aircraft manufacturing and shipbuilding companies throughout Ireland.
7. Would probably also fund a few billions towards developing Ireland's own Space Programme.0 -
