thelad2007: id disagree there. voting is a fantastic privilege. live in a country that doesnt have any sort of democracy at all and you ll realise that fairly quickly.


Personally democracy (basically mob rule) doesn't mean fairness anymore than it protects peoples rights...

Democracy simply means the rule of the majority... That doesn't make them right. Just means they got more votes.....

Guess that's why I call myself a Republican...

thats a fair point alright but our democratic systems are being decimated particularly in the last few years. its disturbing to watch it as we have no real ideas on how to tackle complicated issues such as neoliberalism.

stanley8m: It would be helpful if all of the roads didn't lead to Dublin.

How about a Cork to Galway motorway?


I thought all roads led to Cork wink
