🚨WOW! 🇪🇺 🇭🇺 Viktor Orbán has revealed the document that proves that George Soros is behind the EUROPEAN INVASION of illegal immigrants:
1. The EU has at least to accept 1 MILLION asylum seekers ANNUALLY.
2. Issue LONG-TERM Euro BONDS for financing the migration crisis.
3. Safe channels MUST be established for asylum seekers starting with getting them from Greece, Italy, or Hungary to their DESTINATION COUNTRIES.
Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.
Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.
Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."
Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."
Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.
They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.
One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."
Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.
That's the metered intelligence business model.
And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.
@nogps1 There isn't a single doubt in my mind. I'm nearly 40 now when I was a child and a teenager we used to get what looks like clouds. For a few years now we have had continuous Grey dull sky. A completely different sky
Government released detailed expenditure data today. Ireland’s yearly social welfare bill has exploded from €9bn to €43bn. That is a €34bn increase and a 370% surge. Even in the last 3 years alone it is up €6.4bn. This is completely out of control.
@Nick_Delehanty Iran may have opened the strait but wouldn't be one bit surprised if the USA have seen how much power having it closed given them and try keep it that way
Wow. This is powerful 👏
Time now for an Election
You sent the Dáil home for 20 days while people were struggling.
@MaryLouMcDonald condems the arrogance and lack of empathy from the Government towards the people of the country.
You threatened people - including threatening to send in the army.
#FuelProtest ⛽️ #NoConfidenceGov #Dáil
The protests in Ireland are not about just fuel! They are about the distance between Ireland on this graph and every other modern and developed economy. Ireland is second wealthiest but gets waaaaay less than any other country for that wealth. By a golden mile.
That visual gap in this graph? That’s what people are protesting. It’s a lack of infrastructure and the everyday enshittification of services, the economy, and the additional difficulty of trying to live, relative to peers in any other country. It also highlights why people don’t get uniformly listened to! - because there is no government architecture to engage meaningfully across this huge gap.
That gap is a three hour drive to work in traffic, a 14 month wait for an MRI, buses that don’t arrive, trains that don’t exist, schools that have no places for your kids, houses that are unaffordable, pubs that close before midnight, €12 sandwiches, expensive fuel.
People feel this gap, even if they can’t explain it precisely. And that builds into resentment, and ultimately protest. Fuel just happened to be the next thing that could be pointed to, today.
Well allow me to retort...
A fuel cap is as unrealistic as a rent cap imo. But cutting taxes is perfectly realistic. It won't take a wrecking ball to the economy, just to their vanity projects.
Ireland takes in roughly 4 billion in various fuel taxes. Ireland gave away roughly 2 billion in foreign aid.
So straight away we can see that we could abandon the carbon tax at the pump, and the Nora levy, and lower VAT or Excise to reduce the states take by 25%, or roughly 25 cents a litre, giving us petrol at around 1.70 and diesel under 2 euro. That's just an off the cuff example, not a prescription.
We could do that, decide not to send money abroad next year, and still be up a billion euro. Cutting a billion in taxes but reclaiming 2 billion that's being squandered.
Now if we want to talk about a wrecking ball to public finances, we should look no further than asylum and immigration.
On average, throughout the entirety of their claims process an asylum seeker in Ireland costs the state about 120k euro. That's about ten people on the average wage paying every cent of tax for a year to support each man trying to game our system. Ten people per asylum seeker is taking a wrecking ball to public finances. Along with the hotels they're occupying which have cost jobs and tourism revenue. Irish people didn't consent to their revenue being used in ways that don't benefit them in the slightest.
When it comes to non EEA migration studies show that they're usually a net negative to the public purse to the tune of around 7k a year, when all things are factored in. So on average a non EEA migrant is cancelling out most of the contribution of a taxpayer. Meaning every non EEA migrant is translating to Subtracting one workers contribution, Not adding one. How many of our 25%+ foreign born are non EEA?
When they say that immigration benefits a country it's a deliberately disingenuous presentation of cropped data. EEA migrants benefit the economy they move to, most others simply don't. Multiple studies in multiple countries have confirmed this.
We haven't touched NGOs, largely fruitless pursuits of renewable energy, our EU contribution, or any other department where would could potentially trim wasteful spending.
Don't tell me in this eternally rich country we can't cut taxes? What's the point of us being so rich, as we're constantly told we are, if we can't even react to sustain our economy and avoid a fairly inevitable recession?
@Niall_Boylan Niall you only need to see what the M50 generates for a private company on their watch. No cap they are happy to allow people to be ripped off year after year to waste their life in a car park with little alternative
@SimonHarrisTD This speaks for itself. These people don't represent the people that are protesting that you refuse to enter discussions with? They've just been called to a meeting and handed a package they never sought.
@fiannafailparty Goes back to the F you budget we got that you didn't need votes. Yous should understand the pressure people are under but yous all live in another world far from reality of daily life
@SimonHarrisTD You and your party are a stain on this once great country. Yous have made people resort to this and flippantly dismissing people that want you as a government to understand their grievance as some sort of terrorists is the real flame on the kindling
