sofarsogood74: But it is the responsibility of the state to look after the children of the state and make sure they don't end up on the streets. And with the family home going back to the banks the state would have no option but to house the family because it includes Children. This is not up for debate Kenny. That is the way it is. Also not everyone has family and friends in a position to take them in. A huge amount of people in Ireland are struggling at the moment.
So with that being the way it is it would be counter productive to start evicting families from their homes. It would cost us more in the long run.

kennyfromdublin: As I said before in another post people can always move in with frie4nds or family if they have lost their house, It's common in America and It's no big deal in my opinion.


You know what is also really common in America Kenny. Poverty that I thought I would only see in a 3rd world country. It's amazing how common that is over there. roll eyes

MY reflex would agree with ya. However, with further thought, I'd come around. The difference between here and the US is the crime rate. We have a social net here to stop people going on crime sprees and having entire municipalities fall into decay and criminality. It keeps the have nots from going feral. Because I know that if I had kids to feed I'd be robbing you and everyone else to feed them if there was no other option.
