Hungry for more?

Voters in France & the Netherlands voted “NO” to the CONstitution.
Back to Eire, yes EU subsidies helped. But let’s not forget, the Irish are hard working, industrious and innovative people. To chalk up their prosperity to pointy head bureaucrats is a fallacy.
The Irish were smart enough to use “welfare” payments from the Franco-German axis to LOWER their marginal tax rates. This unleashed the raw entrepreneurial spirit of that Celtic island. They pulled a Reagan and created a generation of them.
In my opinion, the international dispute with the United Kingdom will be resolved through Euro-diplomacy. Let’s face it, those folks in Northern Ireland would be far better off living under Dublin’s rule than London’s.
A united independent neutral and sovereign island of Ireland is the answer. No EU/NATO, ditch UN membership, drop the Euro, adopt a Gold standard, reduce taxes even further and put Dubai to shame! All without the curse of “black Gold.”
