Joe Higgins Answers Question about Bin & Water Charges

[JollyRedGiant]

Here is a question and reply by Joe Higgins on Joe’s stand against the bin and water charges, and his position on waste management. This is an issue of real importance, given that it seems the government may try again to introduce water charges in the not so distant future. Joe Higgins has an unrivalled record of fighting these unjust double taxes.

When Labour & Fine Gael in government who tried to implement water charges in the 1990s, Joe led a campaign which defeated them. And when the government brought in bin charges, Joe not just condemned them in words, but led the anti-bin tax campaign, going to jail himself rather than sell out his community.

I am a capitalist in ideology, however I am lucky enough to have Joe in my constituency, and I have given him my first vote on every occasion he has stood for election, why, he is not a lazy man, he puts real effort into his thinking, unlike the old reliable's who's intellect does not seem to have progressed beyond Dev's divide and conquer answer to everything. I dont agree with a lot of Joe's conclusions but we need this intelligent, caring man to look out for us.

what ridiculous reasoning to vote for anyone!

you reckon that because he puts "real effort into his thinking" (whatever the hell that means) and is hard working, even though you don't agree with a lot of his policies, one should vote for him.

I don't like Joe and unfortunately i have him in my Dail Constituency, but i can respect reasoned arguments to vote for him given to me by socialists who have cogent arguments to make, even if i disagree with them.

Your thoughts on the subject are illogical and contradictory.

Indeed - the Bin and prospective Water Charges are Double Taxation that hits low paid workers the hardest.

The unemployed and the Asylum Seekers out in Dublin West wont pay a penny other than the basic bin tag.
