Now this something worth protesting about. Maybe even an embassy deserves to be burned! This student had to pay extra for a visa because his name was Mohammed! Maybe someone should tell the US that a lot of nasty people shared the name George including kings who oppressed the American colonists.

I cut and paste this piece from the Irish Times because I found it extremely alarming.
Tax cuts fuel the capitalist system - producing a larger bourgeoise capitalists class - I don't need to mention the effect the SSIA's will have on economic growth once they reach fruition.
Economic growth in this country has to be stopped - it has destroyed the power of public sector unions created material wealth at the expense of spiritual decay and attracted legions of brain washed "consumer-voters" who worship at the PD/ Fianna Fail facist capitalist altar.
We need social justice not economic growth.
So heres the story:
