Biggest change in Dubai/Dublin this week-Oct,21,2011

Irish Government Departments are unfortunately full of THE MOST under-comp**ent and inc**able of taking the country out of its current financial and recovery predicament. They have grown up in a ‘community’ where they were not trained to understand how to respond to the problems that hit them, and the country, over three years ago. If you are brought up in Harlam, or other ‘troubled’ US City, you see nothing wrong breaking into cars, banks or assaulting people on the street. And hence those in Irish Government Depts are full of people who are ‘blind’ ………… and stubbornly unprepared for change, sacrifice and seeking forgiveness. There is NOW a frighteningly urgent need for ‘private sector achievers’ to be taken into the ranks of Government Depts at the HIGHEST level (not low ranking people who will with time become as contaminated and corrupted as those who have spent their career lifetime becoming comatose)
And what a shame. The current Government are doing such a great job. But their thinking, scripting and actions are so controlled by those who are at the centre of everything that happens in Government. It is not possible for our senior politicians to implement ideas or take actions that they believe in or that can make a real difference when the ‘microchip’ at the centre of all that can happen is attempting to ensure these things don’t happen. Remember Yes Minister. Or Yes Prime Minister. Well this is, regrettably, what Government is all about. BUT Ireland needs something radically different. But alas my words will disappear in the same way as the memories of Robert Emmett or the many other Patriots the country has been blessed with.
Even today, three years on from the signing of ‘the Guarantee’ that left the financial problems we have today enormously greater than they might have been, Government Depts still control our lives with the same ‘level of restricted thinking’. I won’t go into the many decisions over the past three months alone that will with time prove to have been the wrong choice.
When I read that Kevin Cardiff (previously a senior member in the very Dept that has miserably and unrepentantly failed Ireland and its people) is about to get a senior overpaid job in the EU, I again start to feel that suicide or euthanasia have merits. WHY ? HOW ? WHO makes these decisions. In the private sector if you fail, it banishes you to a place of other failed people. Failure is NOT rewarded.
Time for a change. Or PURGE. What is wrong with having greater numbers of Private Sector people involved in Government. It has worked in many other countries in the world.
