Hey, "95 percent of my stories are true"
A Si Robertson quote. and my stories are very cool.

He's the one with the family that pretended to be something they're not so that they could get money, right?

No. He is the brother to Phil Robertson. He iS part of their family. They are not pretending, ask anyone
in West Munroe about them, and they will tell you that. I have been there, and asked different places,
and the answer is, that they are very, very REAL, from the early days when Phil, Kay and their boys were poor.
Read Phil's book.

Yes those people look like from very humble beginnings

which means absolutely nothing. Lebron James came from humble beginnings.
Try to sound smarter when you post. I'm getting the idea that you can't do better.
Read their books. Hell, just read ANY book for the first time ever.

Nope... Trump..."He was a bad guy -- really bad guy. But you know what? He did well? He killed terrorists. He did that so good. They didn't read them the rights. They didn't talk. They were terrorists."

(Nazi Popeye Cartoon)
Had never seen that... even a decent Popeye impression for 2 seconds. Pretty cool and a logical choice given all the Popeye cartoons we cranked out supporting the war.What has always worked to stimulate the economy and promote growth? Lower taxes and less government regulations. So the democrats take the exact opposite approach of higher taxes and more and more government regulations which are all job killers and stunt economic growth.
Ireland has went from one of the poorer nations in Europe to one of the more prosperous in a short time by changing their tax codes and giving incentives for business to relocate and that is exactly what happened. It is frustrating to see the anemic economy we have that is chained down by high taxes and government regulations of our own making.As Harry Truman might say, "The problem is that there are no one-handed economists." What I'd say is you need to look at the GDP growth chart I posted a couple days ago.
As for Ireland...
€300 billion of assets were transferred to Ireland last year, the CSO figures show. This amounts to €66,700 for each of its 4.5 million population.
However, the CSO noted that that “employment has not changed greatly as a result.”
Analysts have doubted that the figures represent the true position of the Irish economy, which emerged from a €67 billion bailout from a troika of international creditors led by the International Monetary Fund two years ago.
“The 26.3 per cent makes for a great media headline. But if the media want to go find this growth, they might as well go plane-watching at Dublin airport,” said Aidan Regan, assistant professor in the School of Politics and International Relations at University College Dublin.
In part the problem is that businesses are not "relocating"; business headquarters are relocating. As a result Irish unemployment remains high compared to that before the 2008 global recession as seen below. So whether the drop is due to their Corp Tax Slashing or a return to the pre-recession norm is open to debate.
As for regulation? Hard to think of a Pol that hasn't promised to cut them. Even harder to think of one that has. One reason they grow... lobbying for rules that hurt existing competitors and create barriers to entry for new ones...
Gotta get the money out of politics.

How Ireland pulled off an economic miracle that rivals China, India
The country has long had a reputation as one of Western Europe’s poorest nations, with a third of the population living below the poverty line as recently as the 1980s.
But the country’s recent eye-popping economic growth is making it a lot harder to ignore. The Irish economy grew 7.8 per cent in 2015, placing it well ahead of even emerging giants such as China and India. More telling is that Ireland is pulling off a quiet economic miracle as most of the rest of Europe’s economies struggle with poor credit growth, high unemployment and weak inflation.
Ireland has also hugely benefited from the large number of foreign companies that have chosen it as a location for European expansion — mainly due to an incredibly low corporate tax rate of 12.5 per cent.

Trouble is, Tour, CNN won't go and quote higgardly in the same manner. Back in the day, CNN - we called it
the "Communist News Network" for legit, albeit funny, reasons. That is a major trouble with Trump - his saying that
was dumb, since saddam and sons raped, tortured, also murdered thousands and thousands of inncoent people.
We had to depose them. Trouble is, so many of the opposite factions were also extremists - haters. Trump says stuff
superficially, and gets in trouble. Higgardly does it deviously worse, and she is extremely dishonest about it.
Trump needs to stop honestly but superficially knee jerking.

Like Truman said...
Raw data can be revealing. For one thing it shows it's been a rocky go for a very long time.
Here's the link to the data... can call up many different segments of their economy with a couple clicks.

Saddam was infinitely better than the vacuum we left behind.
Sure he killed lots of people - Saddam's Iraq was still paradise versus what's there now.

The plans for an Iran-Iraq-Syria pipeline would have never been fulfilled with Saddam in power, or Assad - just sayin'

Read Phil's book.
I saw Terry Bradshaw who went to school with Robertson and they played football together in Louisiana say Phil Robertston is the real deal. He said he saw it first hand the guy lived for hunting.
Also I think any problems Ireland may have they would rather be in the better economic position they are in now than a couple of decades ago. Lower taxes work to stimulate the economy but unfortunately the last democrat who understood that was Kennedy.
-
When JFK was President the WWII tax rates, raised to actually pay for a war, ranged from 20 to 91%. Again the top marginal rate was 91%!
Ike left them in place to pay down the war-driven deficit. JFK was satisfied that the deficit was under control.
That was a no-brainer...
