Who is entitled? What is the justification for private property? We can only speculate on the origin of property and what is the natural state of man. |

Jump To Comment: 3 2 1the north is propped up by massive financial disbursements from the british governments ( do you dispute this ? )
Who and how will the north replace this unsustainable employment.
If ireland takes over the north anytime soon it faces a crippling bill of 10 billion a year (do you dispute this ? )
the reason the north has neglible/no private enterprise are the troubles ( do you dispute this ? )
flippant remarks are the easiest to make, but say little and never win the argument (do you dispute this ?)
Likewise simple reasoning is the easiest to get support for. (but because the world is complex and nuanced , such simple policies never work )
consider bushe's lets stay and occupy iraq to turn it into a democracy.
What the fuck do you read ?
somebodies being reading the Sunday Indo
winston churchill said democracy was the least bad for of government and you rightly point to capitalism as the least bad method of spreading wealth.
What do we do then, when sinn fein uses nationalism to further their economic vision of ireland.I wouldn't be against a united ireland , but why should i pay for the north ? it has pretty much nothing. Half the people are payed for by the state.
It has repeatedly happened throughout history where politicians rouse the poeple through love for their country only to use the power to do terrible damage!
A few examples: the reunification of germany, where one eastern mark was valued at one western mark ---> ten year recession.
911, terrorist updated and upgraded the suicide bomber technique. The terrorists were a very small and focussed group with a long history with america. George goes into iraq -----> alqueada will be the greatest threat to all our souls going forward , sure they are just queuing up to join !
President Chirac runs around doing his nut telling france that they have it right and that everyone else has to change for ten years. He also blames everything difficult on europe ------> riots riots riots the french are so pissed off that now a new job contract comes out that might improve things they say non!
the most notorious ( and frighteningly close to gerry adams ) hitler tell germans that he can make germany last a thousand years ----> they invade a little bit all over.
I don't share gerry's vision. why should he get to massively tax the south to pay for the north, and the aftermath of his war? Because don't think gerry wouldn't go nuts with the public purse in a minute!!!!
