Note to Labour - No I won't pay for your claptrap.

That sentence doesn't make sense. 10 people cannot duplicate two peoples jobs. 10 people can duplicate 5 people's jobs or 4 people can duplicate 2 people's jobs but 10 people cannot duplicate 2 people's jobs - both grammatically and mathematically impossible.

10 people can duplicate 2 people's jobs if they each do a fraction of a day's work every day. A good description of what I have known of the Irish public sector.

No, I'm not talking about any Myers article, people used that toward you and now you're zoning in on that in an attempt to distract from the holes people are picking in your argument. You've said this before, that I was basing my argument on the Myers article but then I refuted this by saying "I made my arguments based on the fact that you were banging on about some PS worker who went on holidays. You never stated what they earned, what they do for that money, if they have a partner who is earning too, if they went with friends/family who paid their way, if they came into money recently all those things." This has little or nothing to do with a Myers article, so stop using it to get out of answering people's points.

So now, as you appear incapable of answering my questions in any other format, I'm going to lay them out for you one by one. Answer each individually - it'll make it a lot easier for you.
1) What job did the PS worker in question have?
2) What did the PS worker earn?
3) You said in a previous post that PS workers have not suffered - to back this up you used one piece of anecdotal evidence and said "Oh the pain of a month in a French Villa rented at very expensive cost, the pain of three weeks tour in one of the nicest places of the world, the pain... ". Do you actually know how much the holiday cost, and what do you wish PS workers to be paid, since that to you shows they are not suffering?
4) Croke Park is legally binding until 2014, how do you want to see PS pay cut?
5) Why can simple reforms like cutting overtime etc not be used to bring the bill down?
6) Do you know said PS worker?
7) Do you anything about their finances?

Eh, I'm still waiting.

And waiting...

Still waiting you know. I PMed you a while back. All this shows is that you've realised how idiotic your thread was, and you can't even answer a few simple questions.
