Well no matter what party or politics she follows, she'll always have her knockers.

Free market Libertarians are lost in a fantasy world but there are more Socialists, Anarchists and other rich kids knocking with influential jobs and a willingness to drive conformity to their doctrines.

The closest any country has come to free market libertarianism would probably be Singapore.

A once very poor country that was transformed by free market ideology.

Ireland hasnt the capacity to build houses in huge numbers.

Our construction industry was almost finished off post 2008.

We cant keep letting in non EU migrants with low skills.

Yet we've no probs building apartment blocks or build to rent estates.

They are indeed lost in their own fantasy world, the disturbing truth is, it's actually the most widely accepted political and economic ideology, globally, we are all playing our part in this fantasy! There's very few left leaning counterpart utopics around the place, very very few, they're equally lost in their fantasy world also

We do have a problem. We need to build around 35k a year but cant even build 20k a year.

The same Singapore in which the majority of land and accommodation is publically owned, and the same Singapore in which almost a quarter of its gdp comes from publically owned enterprises! Maybe you should do some more homework on this one!

The left true in the towel economically in the 90s.

Now it proposes policies based on how it sounds, practical application is irrelevant.

No its not.

Most trade is under WTO rules.

FFS Trump hates free trade and so does Biden.

The USA- the great United States of America has only free trade with 12 counties out of 193.

:rolleyes:

The one think classical liberals want is free trade and its now further away than ever.

The political left fcuked itself up by getting into bed with all this free market nonsense, it's now completely fcuked, it abandoned it's base, it has no idea what it stands for, no idea what to do, it owes it's base an apology!

Apart from the social housing, public infrastructure, and puritanical morality police.

Hong Kong and Singapore retain the top two positions with a score of 8.94 and 8.65 out of 10, respectively. The rest of this year’s top scores are New Zealand, Switzerland, Australia, United States, Mauritius, Georgia, Canada, and Ireland.

The resident right wing scum are well represented, don't you worry horse.

Be interesting if she's not affiliated with any party or group. We use to have people that thought for themselves. Now everyone is put in a box. Easier to create demons than look in the mirror I suppose.

Its important to realise, smith didn't mean what libertarians think he meant, he meant an economy 'free from rent', we currently have the opposite!

There is currently no right wing party in the Dail.

But we have parties in the Dail that think communism was great in Europe.

There is nothing libertarian about Singapore. It is a much more conservative and authoritarian society than Ireland.

Top scores of what? Once again, the majority of Singapores land and accommodation is publically owned, and almost a quarter of its gdp comes from publically owned enterprises!

Because the place is so small.

But without its free market ideology it would be a dump.

FG are right wing. FF are chancers who lean where the money is.

I define right wing as lack of empathy bordering on disdain for the low income tax payer and crony behaviour erring on the side of business over the tax payer. FG have that in spades.

As a self-professed Social Democrats voter, what did you think about them advocating against allowing 12 storey apartment blocks in Santry? A mixture of private, social, and affordable housing.
