Hey BobM what do you mean about half the population not providing pensions for their old age.

Are not all those working including self employed paying PRSI which is amongst other things supposed to fund their old age pension.

The public service enjoy generous pension provisions at the expense of other tax payers - the cost of providing such a pension out of own resources would be massive.

Travellers are experts at obtaining every state hand out going, and then some.

Apologists for travellers never take responsbility for their misbehaviour - just suggest that we have to respect their culture etc
