We mere citizens get what we deserve

I am apoplectic with rage over the abruptly-retired financial regulator’s golden handshake of some €630,000 and a lifelong pension of €142,670 per annum.

What is wrong with this country? Are we the public so conditioned, programmed and malleable that we accept this and other deals like it without protest or reaction?

Yes, we are. Over the past 20 years two strata of society have evolved in Ireland — the elite and the citizens.
