More stupid abusive language from seanomel. "He never said" he supported globalization? I think he doesn't even know what it is. Globalization, in one of its principal manifestations, means the internationalization of labor. International capitalism wants to be able to select the cheapest workers it can find, regardless of national boundaries. One strategy is to send jobs to places of poverty--we have all come across Indian call centers, and more and more light manufacturing is done in places like India, China etc.. The alternative strategy, and the one favored in Ireland, is to bring poor people (Indians,and Poles, and Paks, and Latvians etc etc) to the jobs. In other words, import cheap labor, and to hell with Irish workers. That's what you have consistently backed in your posts here, seanoeml (insofar as anyone can make sense of them), and it's right-wing vulture capitalism. Look in the mirror and you'll see an ugly anti-Irish right-winger, seanomel.

You're full of crap wounded brain I have never said I supported "globalisation" and European workers in Ireland would have to be paid the "safety net" wage or the industry union rate. Don't use me as a crutch to hide your bigotry and racism. Curitiba is keeping her own score what an idiot no sense no feeling I suppose.

Seanomel: Don't deny it. You are a consistent apologist here for globalization, which is the principal project of international capitalism in the early 21st century. You are a big defender of the use of imported cheap labor by the Irish capitalists. Of course you're a right-winger, your stupid abusive posts can't hide it.

WoundedKnee: Indeed, but now you have the absurd situation where the migrants who were brought in to replace the "lazy workshy" Irish (and indeed British) have produced second generation immigrants born in Ireland and the UK who are themselves labelled "workshy and lazy" and are being replaced by more immigrants. Take a look at today's London Evening Standard and you will see what I mean. in the paper last week there was a young lady of Indian parentage blaming "racism" for the fact she couldn't find a job. But many companies are recruiting direct from India, totally bypassing the UK labour market, so it was a bit of a cop out blaming "racism", seeing as these firms made every effort to recruit Indian workers. They just didn't want to recruit UK-born ones, it seems.

Curitiba: I would ignore that poster seanomel. He hasn't been in Ireland for decades, he knows nothing of the country and is an extreme right-wing apologist for unchallenged capitalism. You correctly call out the bigotry of his slurs like "lazy Irish". I was in Ireland in the 1980s and 1990s. Irish people were making a good living in jobs like retail, bus driver, security guard, barman, hotel receptionist, and doing these jobs well. But the Irish capitalists decided to import cheap and docile workers, and so the foreign migrants took over jobs traditionally done by Irish people. Now I go to Ireland and I see welfare lines and emigration. The young Irish are leaving while the foreign migrants stay, and new migrants flock in every day. It's called ethnosuicide, and it will result in an Ireland without ethnically Irish people within the lifetime of many users of this site.

seanomelb, you are vile, slimy, stomach churning creature. Everyone hates you, even people that have never met you or even know about your miserable existence hate you. There is not enough hours in the day to hate you.

I don't know what you are talking about seanomelb and I don't think you do either. Where have I expressed a dislike for any particular nationality of people, exactly? Nowhere, that's where. I am merely expressing cynicism about exploitation of foreign labour by corporations who seek to disenfranchise native workers in the name of profit. You're saying that the Irish wouldn't do the menial jobs during the Celtic Tiger? Have you evidence of that, or are you buying into the lie that Irish workers are so lazy that they needed to get people from overseas to do the work. The same "lazy workers" that the Aussied are bending over backwards to recruit. Who is perpetuating national stereotypes now? You, that's who.

The safety net pay for Australians is the highest in the world Curitiba(over$600). The bigots below fail to remember during the "Celtic Tiger" years the Irish wouldn't do the menial or the services jobs and now you snivel and cry and want our fellow Europeans deported because the Irish who did not want the jobs are now happy to do the menial work.You and Wounded brain are just a couple of racists.
