Must say I agree - there are people living in our estate that we are supporting through massive tax and levy increases - I am particularly annoyed about the bankers - and there's quite a few of them living here! Terribly disruptive to ur way of life - huge income cuts because of them. And then there's always a developer looking for a handout still living in the selfsame houses that NAMA aka taxpayer now owns and is about to start paying for in the Nov budget. It's terrible.
