I guess, after all what has 'hit the fan' these last few months the above proposals are just for gaining popular support
True and very wise words but strangely no one from the mainstream indigeous people i.e your everyday white ford driving bloke has mentioned it in a good or bad way to me or read about in the media. Only those who are going to be affected in some way and all are going loopy so i think it backfired on her in a big way.

By november we are due to be in a huge recession, a guy who works in ireland for a finance company has come over for the league cup final on sunday has been telling me about the mess in the US and in Ireland (there are more vacant flats for sale in Dublin than are planed to be bulid in the whole of this year 2008) and it should hit us full on in august due to his estimation.

So in November they may be worrying about far more important things like keeping the country afloat.
