    But, but,...but.... their corporate tax rate is so low..... how could this be happening????? Impossible!

    And they renounced statutory union recognition. Strange indeed!

    Yea, our government blew all our cash bailing out their buddies in the banks. Criminal! They'll get away with it though.

    We're all being hit with new taxes left and right. And goverment is cutting things like special needs education and health care. Not good.

    The "Greens" recently joined the goverment. And somehow they think it's a good idea to charge me €4 every time I want to recycle glass bottles! How idiotic is that! Like everyone else, I'm now putting those things in the land-fill. I'd LIKE to help the environment, but they just made it unaffordable. Other European countries actually PAY you to recycle. Our goverment doesn't have a clue.

    Tens of thousands march against cutbacks in Ireland

    But in Dublin, a crowd estimated by police to be between 85,000 and 100,000 people, accused the government of leaving teachers, nurses, civil servants and construction workers with the bill for Ireland's economic woes and letting banks and property developers off the hook.

    How long till people here realize the bail out isn't working???

    Then what happens?

    DUBLIN, Feb 21 (Reuters) - Nearly 100,000 people marched through Dublin on Saturday to protest at government cutbacks in the face of a deepening recession and bailouts for the banks.

    Store gasoline in approved jerry cans and only in a well ventilated place. Don't carry it around in a car trunk. Also, remember Propane, like gas, is heavier than air and a leak will pool in confined spaces. Can be ignited by the slightest spark, even static electricity.

    Legumes also produce gas and it can accumulate in confined spaces. Should not be vented near a open flame.

    You mean even before you eat them???? If I have a lot of beans on the shelf are you saying my pintos are going to explode? I never heard this before.
