Toll firms paid €28m to compensate for lack of traffic -

I find it remarkable that there are just endless blatant examples of either complete disregard for the general public or complete ineptitude of running the country. I just can't fathom how things like this are acceptable and we have not had a civil up rising of some description.

This actually isn't the worst of it. At least the roads wee built and we have a v good motorway network compared to 15 yrs ago.

If you wanted to get excited about how money is wasted look at the €40m spent on thinking about putting a kids hospital at the Mater hospital, the similar fortunes spent on Croke Park, National Acquatic Centre, Electronic Voting Machines and Decentralisation. Thanks Bertie!

Oh I agree it's a cumulative effect and it's rooted in previous generations as well but will we ever pass the nth degree, will there ever be a reform or are we just to accept this as how things are to be?

Ah it's ok. We'll be saved by the emerging force that is Sinn Fein who plan to tax the rich heavily (that'll be you in your fancy German car) and spend all the money on "social programs"

Yeah telling us what we want to hear seems to be gathering them points but little action being taken

It'll get them into government yet and then it'll truly cost us.

From the country being run by criminals, sure no harm letting a terrorist organisation have a go at it
