  1. Off on break. But back in time to make 2010 the year of fightback for progressives. Season's best to everyone.
  2. RT @irishleftreview RT: @NYTimeskrugman: Would cutting the minimum wage raise employment? No. Faulty economics. http://bit.ly/8K6bC7
  3. RT @irishleftreview Hospital cleaners create £10 for every pound earned. Bankers destroy £7 per pound earned. http://j.mp/6BUghV
  4. @ronanlyons We should all start with respect and great expectations, in the liberating capacity of reasoned debate. Thus, the budget blues.
  5. @ronanlyons We'll make a social democrat out of you yet, Ronan!
  6. @ronanlyons No irony. Higher taxes good. Pay for early educationm low-cost childcare, free GP care, infrastructural investment, equality.
  7. @ronanlyons Yes, comprehensive property tax - land, house, financial. Start with 100K+ income. Pay for NG Broadband. Boost productivity.
  8. @ronanlyons Almost every modern economyfollowing stimulus. Last time FF strategy tried - Hoover: depression - just like here.
  9. @ronanlyons That's a sampling!. Start with top 75K who own 40% of wealth. Tax, borrow, invest, spend. Stimulus. Growth is the pot of gold.
  10. @ronanlyons Okay, so no concrete 'dodgy facts'. High earners pinned to the collar: http://short.ie/z9eyb5 - some pay as much as 5% tax!
  11. @ronanlyons I might be willing to agree if you could give me at least one 'dodgy fact' - your words, not mine.
  12. @ronanlyons I know that. Question still stands - what dodgy fact?
  13. @ronanlyons Is high corp tax receipts a function of tax relief or low tax rate? TASC report focused mainly on non-FDI tax reliefs.
  14. @ronanlyons Any particular dodgy fact that is concerning you?
  15. @Mark_Coughlan Thanks for that Mark.
  16. Does anyone know who's on Frontline tonight discussing the budget?
  17. @ubfid They don't present the rebuttal. And continue restating the original fallacy. Arrrgggghhh.
  18. Budget 2010 - they won, we lost, get over it, now change it. The Anatomy of Defeat http://short.ie/hm8090
  19. @ubfid The debunking of a story never catches up with the original wrong assertion. You should e-mail P Kenny show directly.
  20. @stephenkinsella Have posted a question to what is an excellent proposal.
