It’s about time my little shit learned to pay his way.

Job.

ESRI spokesperson on RTE’s 1oock news saying the FFG budget will have the wealthier an average of 1.3% worse off while the lower paid will be an average of 2.5% (almost twice as much) worse off

And the Government say it’s “a targeted budget”. Easy to see who FFG want to target and who they want to see after. Cnuts!

Why are you surprised?

They look after the people who vote for them. Lower paid people will never vote FG or FF regardless of what they do, so why waste money on them?

Rightly or wrongly they looked after people who don’t work the most. Withdrawing once off measures was always going to bite people.

It’s supposed to be a government for all FFS. It’s Public Money they’re spending - not FFG funds!

No, they take 7.5% of the value of the home annually for the first three years, a maximum of 22.5% in total.

They most certainly do not take people's homes.

Think you are slightly wrong with the context - they do not take people's homes yes but they can come looking for the money after the death of the person which results in the sale of the house.
The fair deal as you say has locked in %'s and for all the world is a loan.
For couples its 3.75% as they take into account half.

So after a death, If your house is valued at 500k and it's the 22.5% rate that's 112k (give or take) owed, not a lot of families will be able to pay that which results in the house going on the market, and there could be a situation where the persons husband/wife partner still is fully coherent physically and mentally able to care for themselves meaning they have to look for a new house to live in.

If people want the government to spend money on them, then they should be voting for them.

Why would I give any money to someone who sits around on social media all day hurling abuse at me?

Jees, so much for lessons being learnt from the Jim Galvin Affair.

If you can't even be bothered to spell Mr. Gavin's name correctly, it shows just how little respect you have for our political system
