we have to grin and bear it, or do we?
if all the retirng tds had their pensions cut from 200 thousand and 120 thousand to 25 thousand a year[500 a week approx , thats more than twice sociil welfare recipients], there would be enough money to be redistributed so that those on social welfare, could be refunded their 8 euros a week.
This would make good sense as it would stimulate the economy.
I believe there are 28 RETIRING TDS,28 MULIPLIED BY 75THOUSAND,= 179 thousand, add on another 6 for retiring ministers on 200 thousand, 185 thousand.
the politicans have created this economic fiasco, if they were in industry it would be expected that their pay would be performance related, on that basis these biffoites deserve nothing.
