The Irish economy its a messy and the government is not willing to make it any better well they are , but in a way that won't work , they just introcuce taxes like household , the water tax , site tax cutting pension its a long list but the funny thing is that people in the doll, or taking child benefits is not affected as the majority of the normal working class people are .. simply because there is no point at going to work when you have everything you need.. The wellfare its spoiling this country but I dont know why the government wont touch it ...hopeffully it will get better sometime in the future....
