    Public and Private sectors equals.. Cowen... Huh?

    He added that a pay freeze was not possible and that Ibec had "a brass neck" in seeking a pay pause for public servants when it represented companies where senior executives were paid millions.
    Brian Cowen in Irish Times today.

    Wow! Biffo is comparing the private sector to the public sector. So you would
    like to put limits on free enterprise then Msr. Cowen? The soviets would be
    proud of you. Can we send this eejet to Siberia for a few months?

    I'm locking this thread. The IBEC proposal is already being discussed here.
    Nothing will motivate the lazy / apathetic / Americanised / west-British types to embrace their culture and the Irish language.

    Oops! Well I think Begg deserves to be called an idiot but I think you're being a bit harsh calling me one. It's not like I'm reading the 9 o'clock news here.
