Meh, don't even understand the politics of my own country other than the fact they make promises they can't or won't keep and all the while line their own pockets.

Wow.
That sounds just like our government.

Its a worldwide government conspiracy.

so true, Lod, since our government started to run out of money they thought about closing the government, not sure if they did or not, and many people who work for the government will not get paid, but who is not included in that list? the people who don't need the money to begin with, every politician in Washington doesn't need the money but they still get paid, even if the government shuts down, problem?

Eh I dunno, all I know is our taoiseach makes more than ye're president.

sorry, whats a taoiseach?

Irish Prime Minister. Our President is a figure head/goodwill ambassador

ah

Yah.

I dunno, I would rather have all politicians earning the minimum wages. Means they earn the same way as everyone else, not more money for less work.

yeah and most of them already have millions anyway
