Nothing gets you going in the morning like a bit of Godspeed You Black Emperor. Somehow �The Dead Flag Blues� off of �F#A#Oo� really hits the spot at the moment.

In the states we take it a step further and call it
Emminent Domain. Entire blocks of residential
areas through out the nation have gone way to big business. Wealthy businesses simply summon the town board
of any given area, show they can improve the prosperity of the community with shopping malls, etc. If the town board agress [which they usually do with hefty handouts] it doesn’t matter who is in their path. Folks who’s homes have been in their families for generations simply have to pack up and move. This act was past by our Supreme Court a few years back and big buisness have taken it to the mat.

The flip side is … areas currently near or co-existing with malls, business districts, etc. are snatched up by the owners of the existing businesses to squelch any possible competition. How that is classified as Emminet Domain remains a secret. We’re not as free as many think. … And while most Americans squabble whether Janet Jackson’s exposed nipple should be considered obscene during the Super Bowel flop … or giggling about Dick Chaney’s shooting accident, other Americans are losing their homes, or Academy Awards … do you believe that??? Honoring people who make 20 million dollars for being in movie! while school teachers are leaving their professions as they do not make enough money to live on. I’m sadden at the shallowness the media [and many citizens]in my country seems to dwell on …

Perhaps a few Irish bloggers should come over and explain to us Americans how to set priorities and teach us exactly how to kick some substantial ass. Our blabbering idiots who claim they are looking out for the little guy … never do anything but talk and use such issues as pulpits to promote thier own names and/or agendas,[as well as
pumping up their own bank accounts on the misery of others]. I can only envy the irish people who have stand up, unpretentious and sincere advocates looking out for them.

Just felt compelled to add my two cents … Thanks.

Thanks for the mention Ciaran, and happy to see at least one member of Dail Eireann is reading. Planning corruption seems to be as bad now as ever, and yet there is a belief that its all in the past…its not.
