 @blueboy3990 you can definitely force them not to have kids by making living conditions so dire, and killing off the very natural ecosystems that our bread baskets and water supply depends on

@user-op8fg3ny3j clearly the gritty economy reality alludes you Have you heard of climate collapse? I sure wouldn't mind dragging new life into a world that will certainly be worse off when I turn 40

@joeblogs6598 This world knows the price of everything and the value of nothing. From hospice care, to healthy families, healthy communities to a healthy biodiversity that all our food relies on.

@manudwarf49 and there's FA decent transport outside of Dublin. I've 8 years no claims on insurance and the quote is below €800 for the first time. Most people reliant on the car here in Ireland tolerate +€1200 as the norm. An 18 year old who passed their licence in a 1.4 fiesta would be facing +2500 per annum. They're a monopolistic cartel, Ireland is valued and exploited like an isolated market on to itself... There's FA public alternative or any alternative that deliberately undercuts the cartel I could also be talking about health insurance too...

@danielwebb8402 I'm not agreeing with you. Don't be arrogant. And since you mentioned the 1700s, yknow, Ireland's colonization being the birthplace of British colonisation and capitalism... My parents had the stones to admit to me that my standard of life was not going to be better than theirs, marred by the 2008 crash. A better life does not mean being spoiled for choice at LIDL or by the unless stream of coffee shops. Living off sustenance wages. A better life means a tangible outlook to make a better life. That simply doesn't exist, the jobs simply doesn't exist. We may live in different countries but we're all living through an unfolding climate collapse It's all wishing with you. My generation are fully aware that neither did we inherit a free and independent Ireland, we're also inheriting a climate collapse being fueled by a runaway, nonsensical demise of chasing GDP as the only mission in life. Those who have kids are only lucky that they have generational wealth from parents or grandparents to absorb the time and cost. Those who didn't have wealth in the family get welfare with their kids and I'm glad that they can, because there are many who suffer in destitution with and without welfare or any kind, working and living in a hotel. Many other with or without kids have to emigrate to the likes of Canada, Australia and New Zealand who are undergoing the exact same socioeconomic crises like housing and renting but life over there is still better than it is in Ireland.

Who in their right mind would want to bring up children in this day and age of unfolding climate collapse and where crehes and child daycare demands a swcond mortgage?

@useodyseeorbitchute9450 Quick and easy way to say you're too cowardly to face the facts of physics of what happens when oil companies burn hundreds of millions of years of CO2 back into the atmosphere in the period of less than a century, For the sake of the economy

@Christopher_Giustolisi maybe you don't know what it's like to live in Ireland. Everything in Ireland, economic prosperity revolves around Dublin, even if that means you have to rent a house with others and drive near an hour away from work to survive. And most of that work are bullshotjobs that only exist for boosting GDP numbers and servicing the debts of fraudulent bankers from 2008 while also undermining any sense of sustainability on earth.

@danielwebb8402 first off, try fitting climate collapse into that picture. Ireland was poor in living memory. A can of coke or a pizza was exotic then, but don't we realise how BS that is? The 80s you couldn't have a pot to piss in, or a corner to hide away from the church. Our history was marred with constant emigration. Yet, times always gotten better. But that rosy outlook, especially after the crash has been a lie, both economically, socially and environmentally Only the first time in Ireland's history are people emigrating because it's too expensive and no where to live despite being told there's countless of jobs that pays less than what is was in the early 2010s and explicitly doesn't keep the money in the town or country. All GDP mimicry and servicing of foreign national tax evaders.

@danielwebb8402 you've completely deflected fella. I'd be worse off if I was living in the UK... That's worse than living in Ireland. The politics of vandalism of the Tories are copied by Fine Gael, but at least we're still in the EU. That's no bright side, it's just less depressing than the mess you're content in letting your young people live in. The real children are those who squandered the futures of future generations

They only work for "the economy" that transfers wealth of both public and everyone's personal pockets to private market players. That's been Thatcher's ideal

@joeblogs6598 You can't see the fact that our governments are held captive by capital interess, much more than our democratic will. I know the world neoliberalism may harm the lot of you guys but that's the world we've inherited. Climate collapse baked in.
