offsite link Dictator Trump? That?s Just Silly Wed Feb 26, 2025 19:05 | Dr James Allan
Calling Trump a dictator is just silly, says Prof James Allan. Yes, he's bombastic. But he's been elected to secure the border and drain the swamp. And he is the President, in whom all executive authority resides.

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:

A new tax-cutting policy aimed at average middle-class families was unveiled by the Progressive Democrats at the conclusion of the party's national conference in Limerick yesterday. Attacks on the Labour Party over tax, immigration and health dominated much of the conference debate. Stephen Collins and Liam Reid report read full story / add a comment

Saturday 22/4/06 - The Teacher’s Club.

At this meeting whose purpose is to form and reform associations and to invigorate the anti-war effort, there arose a topic that at first glance might look to be irrelevant. However it is a topic that eventually dominated the meeting and strengthened our association. read full story / add a comment

Graffiti artist Marc Ecko broke into a government facility where one of the Boeing 747 planes which serve as Air Force One was parked, and tagged it with graffiti. Ecko then posted video of the tagging online, along with a video statement of “why I tagged the President’s plane.”

- Or so he says. As it turns out, the video is fake. read full story / add a comment

The title would suggest that the writer is not attempting to ingratiate self with the readership; to remove any lingering doubts in that regard you can go fuck yourself or any other female/male member of your immediate family, OK! I’m happy to leave persuasive discourse to the theological, political and capital oriented propagandists. read full story / add a comment

A revenue source has claimed that hundreds of taxi drivers are deserting their jobs, rather than submit to rigorous audit checks being carried out by the Department of Revenue. Rogue drivers have been amassing undeclared income, and under new tax clearance rules established by the regulator when the industry was deregulated, many are falling prey to the new tightening of regulations. read full story / add a comment

wicklow / environment / news report Saturday April 22, 2006 15:53 by Dargle Valley Residents   text 3 comments (last - friday june 30, 2006 21:27)
The Dargle Valley area of Bray is home to hundreds of high value homes, prices influenced by the spectacular backdrop of the famous Sugar Loaf mountains and views of the sparkling Dargle River. It is also home to the illegal dump on Love Lane. Of landfill proportions, this dump is being ignored by Wicklow CC officials in the grand tradition ignoring the start up of illegal landfill in the county at times when the local authority is not in a position to provide a service itself. Coolnamadra, Whitestown and Blessington all carry allegations that Wicklow CC in someway supported their existence in the early days of their lives because there was no other home for the waste, commercial waste having been banned at their own official landfills at that time. The same could be said today in Love Lane.

This is the first chapter of Book II.

A lot of ground covered here, there's a cast of billions. George Bush makes an appearance, so does Tony Blair and even Jesus himself has a part to play. There's psychology, sociology and an examination of fear. Phase space is looked at (in a non visual fashion) and a better plan to end Global Terrorism is suggested to GWB than the one he currently uses. Likens apathy to phase space. read full story / add a comment
