    AMEN to that.

    The wealthy and the powerful used the main organs of communication in the past - newspapers, radio and television - and use the more up to date organs now - such as the net - to blame the ordinary people and not just those on welfare.

    The various communications media should not have allowed it to happen. We would not be broke if they had exposed what was happening.

    But it has not ceased. Many of the contributors on politics.ie are just representatives of some powerful political or financial vested interest orchestrating a specific line.

    They are still not held to account.

    More accuratly, people in the 'real world' are vegetating on xfactor and talafornia and are totally unware of just how badly they are going to be screwed in coming years, so they will sleepwalk to their own economic doom without a whimper of a protest.

    The crazed Irish establishment attack on Internet users is worrying for all Irish citizens.

    Many of these frenzied attacks have been launched by politicians in power in Ireland in 2012.

    More illogical attacks have come from the establishment Irish media.

    To compare these disturbing machinations to a King Canute style behavioural pattern must be very accurate.

    Ireland is a very little country and politicians have miniscule powers in the greater scheme of things.

    Delusions of power and unbridled /unchallenged cronyism and nepotism seems to have defined an alternative reality for these clowns.

    To attack the World Wide Web is an act of insanity.

    This is very worrying for irish citizens looking for leadership in2012.



    Follow the money trail to nepocron and uncover political corruption.

    I don't think that anyone is blaming the people on welfare..
    it is just that every other sector of society has had to take serious cut backs.. so should also those on benefits.. we are all in the feck'n mess together.
