I have a big heart ...
like Dedo on your mountain top
so they are forced to leave their country, its the government`s responsibility to take care of its people
Yeah, it's a sad fact. The humongously rich people of the world are hoarding money to rule the world. In America it's the Koch Brothers that would rather spend millions establishing new political parties, PACS and other schemes to rule.
They will lose in the end. I know the outcome!
I dont know about employment laws in other Countries, are they even allowed employ under age kids?
I don't think it is only a problem in Ireland. Few years back in Europe, you could leave a place of employment and find another job right away.
Now, there is not enough jobs for the locals, even harder for the newcomers. It is depressing for the younger generations as jobs are leaving due tothe high taxes imposed on people creating employment and they have a limited future.
Statitics of unemployment are manipulated to reassure people that all is well when in fact it is worse than stated. Since a lot of industries left, you'll find jobs in the administrations or in the service industries. Even when people work, their income is stagnant and reaching a level that will not support them with the high cost of living.
The middle class is in its way to extinction and the poverty level has reached a larger number of people in society.
Services are cut but taxes increase. Also, the turning point with people with a job is when they reach a certain age and they are replaced with younger, cheaper and more flexible people since there is a limited amount of work.
The West is more and more becoming an Orwellian society with an omnipresent government surveillance, a control environment and public mind control by deceiving the public invoking the well being of everyone. There will be a time when there no longer will be food for everyone or money taken from the few to dispense to the many.
George Orwell, I salute you!
Personally, I think that every nation should keep its sovereignty and get out of the EU. It expanded too fast and now it is bleeding internally.
When I see headlines in the papers over here, I realize how gullible some people are.
Newspapers printing some nonsense going on outside the country, this way they deflect the important problems.
It is like "Look, they are in it up to their knees" when the reality is that the one criticizing are in it up to their neck.
Well, I do not wish misery to anyone. But the wheels are in motion.
