Bites Back

This Irish water is a standing joke a state owned asset by the people who paid taxes since our foundation A basic right they are trying to deny us to privatise it to foreign investment hands Controlling the substance of all life force paying of banking debts with their ill gained purses when they got fat bonuses as pay offs A regular occurrence swept under The government in this country is far beyond a standing joke So sad it's beyond a laughing matter Suffering when everyone can see its criminal what they are doing forcing us into poverty and slavery as the gap between rich and poor increases They need to take their heads out from under the sand and smell the roses in the garden Orchard of wisdom of the people they represent facts

You have written this with a lot of feeling, Liam! Privatization could lead to privation. It is always the minnows who suffer! ~ Regards // paul
