Kenny, Noonan, & Gilmore, keep saying ad - nauseam that everything on the table. This is a blantant lie. The only sections of the community who's incomes that are 'on the table' are people on Social Welfare, and the lower to middle income families and individuals. The B***ards who created the economic problems we now face as a nation will not have their incomes touched, the former Ministers who ran the country into the ground will not have their incomes touched, the company directors who made large profits during the boom, the semi - state CEO with guaranteed pensions and bonuses, the Bankers who gave money away like candy, the tax exiles who claim to be Irish, all the aforementioned group of people, who should be paying their share, will not have their incomes touched. The only people who will lose money, and hope, are the poor and working class. The government better be aware that an arisen people is an unstoppable force once it gains momentum and direction and they better start doing whats right for the people, because one day that unstoppable force might be directed towards them.
