Your country's economy in a nutshell
#18
RE: Your country's economy in a nutshell
Being an offshore tax haven for US companies with significant EU presence (even more so when the much larger tax haven in London leaves the EU). Having a government which boasts of economic performance while saying it doesn't have the money to fix hospitals, give needed pay rises to necessary staff (while having plenty for politicians and judges) or to build houses to stop the metastizing homeless crisis (despite NAMA still sitting on a huge property portfolio. Having a farming sector gettin attention at c 10 times it's economic importance, and being enouraged in massively environmentally damaging practices (our solution to global warming? Put more cows on the land!).

I could go on but you get the picture.
