Government for the many, by the many

A REAL lesson needs to be learnt from the recent financial crisis. Things didn’t just change, they changed utterly.

But, straight away, we’re back trying the same old measures. The same people openly remain in charge. I’m not referring to Fine Gael and Labour, but the wealthy entrepreneurs and political donors who exert power over our society. They’ll save us, they say. But the reality is that they’ve only ever been in it for themselves.

So that’s been tried and it failed. Trying it again is just learned stupidity.
