@derJamesJackson@Bubblenoma It’s probably just because the Germans think if they don’t criticize israel, we’ll all forget about them holocausting 6m Jews.
@CormacJOKeeffe Finally. Thinking of all the families up and down the county torn apart by semi-synthetic hash jellies, and what this will mean for them.

@ciarannugent So low that it basically cuts anybody out that has any responsibilities in life. It’s school pocket money. There’s definitely a cohort of young people in their 20s etc would do it if viable. The fact they’re only designed for school leavers, living at home, takes many out of it.
Can't raise minimum wage because it will kill jobs.
Can't raise taxes on the bourgeoisie class because it will kill jobs.
Can't ditch oil because it will kill jobs.
But when these companies replace 50% of their workforce with AI, it's "sorry, that's just the way it goes."
1 in 5 Irish workers are on low wages
A higher share than any other high income EU member, 7th highest in the EU overall and about 33% higher than the EU average
Currently, 17, 18, & 19 year old workers can legally be paid just 70%, 80% or 90% of the minimum wage, respectively.
Apprentices of any age can be paid even less than this - in their first year, only a shocking 56% of the minimum wage.
We're introducing a bill to end this.
