Unemployment levels in western europe have been traditionally high for the past ten years, in around ten percent....Ours is undesirably high at the moment but it shouldn't entirely wreck the economy. We are generating over 100 billion per year after all, the economy will survive one way or another

Its 00.44 am & I have to head off to bed .
I just want to say you sound to me like a young person who has never
experienced serious societal problems. Up until 2 months ago - we had
NO PROBLEMS IN IRELAND .It was all talk-mostly lies that any problems existed.
Then suddenly our State admited it had a very serious problem .
Now we have NO SOVEREIGNTY & THE IMF & EU RUN OUR FINANCES .
Our REAL CRISIS STARTED 2 MONTHS AGO - LET'S TALK 12 MONTHS FROM NOW .
Thanks jb

I see debt as neither benign nor evil.....it can have both positive and negative effects...If someone wants to borrow money to buy a house they cannot afford in the short term but feel secure enough in their job to do it, then why shouldnt they? All financial crisis are essentially based around debt, not having the money to pay what you owe. you could take the view that someone working to pay a mortgage is a debt slave but what are their other options? whats the alternative?

Our live register again from the CSO - tells us we have approx 465,000
people receiving some form of State benefit from a potential workforce of 2.2 Million .
That's 21% + of the workforce receiving State benefit .
You view debt as an accountant/economist would .They see it as benign /good.
I see it as a social evil . We will have to differ on that one.
OUR PRESENT CRISIS IN IRELAND IS BASED AROUND ONE THING -
& ONLY ONE THING . DEBT & MORE DEBT . Many thanks jb
JB,the "option to build"scheme was a tax avoidance scheme of which the dept. of finance were well aware. Provisions to close the loophole were inserted in the fiance act 2007(available online on attorney general's site).However they were never brought into effect as they required a ministerial order which was never made.See section 110.The MOF at the time was Brian Cowen.

Appreciate that info . Never realised that - but in the context of FF
governance & their intimate relationship with speculators etc. -
I can understand it completely. I believe that after FF is removed from
power - a huge amount of material - which we are not aware of at present -
will be made public. Many thanks. jb
