As Ireland's finances continue to collapse, we offer a backgrounder on how the recession and crash of the property market have changed Ireland's economy beyond recognition.
Dole collection day in Dublin. For everyone in the endless queue, tomorrow is full of uncertainty. Redundancy rates are booming and many now rely on charities to survive. The prognosis is bleak: "We forecast that unemployment will continue rising to at least 15%." In Limerick alone, up to 10,000 jobs have been lost in past months. " This is the equivalent to a nuclear attack on the Midwest region, " says the mayor. There are widespread complaints about the government s incompetence ; nine months into the crisis and still no rescue package in sight. This year, Ireland 's economy is due to shrink by an alarming 8%. The impact on people s lives is keenly felt. "Many phoning up are on the brink of ending it ," says Paul of Console Helpline. Sadly, his phone is sure to keep ringing for a while yet.

the suicide rates, particularly for women 40-60 in America has increase substantially as well :o(...
True. So sad.
Weak sucks.. Nothing wrong with giving up, if you're a weak human!
Everyone should have done what the Icelanders did. They put their banksters in goal!
The audacity of the camera crew to film people lining up for Dole payments without blurring their faces.
Who's to blame? The Irish government, big businesses and bankers. It was their greed and corruption which led to the 2008 financial crisis. Not the Irish people! Although we suffered the most from the bubble bursting, we shouldn't be burdened with the blame or the loss of capital. We should have independent control over our own lives and finances. As for poor people committing suicide, that's a direct result of people losing their life savings because of the greedy government who stole from us. We, the people, are not to blame! 😤 🇮🇪
Looks like this is gonna be Australia in 2021-2022.
It says 2009 in the description but this was uploaded in 2016 now that the Irish economy is well back into growth. What kind of a joke is this?
Opening Salvo Alarmism, drawing some stupid people to the comment section, & typical hand-wringing, as if we're so weak a people that we can't stop that from happening again. And yeah, we got plenty of normies who like to stay in their bubbles of self-contained comforts, convinced that they are each individual arbiters of their own fate, well-equipped to transcend to inconveniences of the state.
But still, if their bubble gets popped by someone who says someone else did it, there will be brickings of the facial variety.
Very true.
who is seeing the growth in ireland ? the people are not, it's all number crunching unemployment is still huge just people are put on other payments so they are not on the register as unemployed, we have the biggest homeless crisis we have ever had suicide in ages 40 + male's is at a staggering rate
@@TheWillog 40% of homless people aren't even irish, deport them and thats nearly half the problem sorted 😊
@@seanb1522 id rather look after them and hang the scumbag government in charge the 40% non Irish homeless are welcome to stay
economic growth is unsustainable long term under any economic system ...unless you can avoid public sector debt.
Governments tend to help most those who need help the least. One way to do that is to manipulate economic institutions so as to create cycles of boom and bust. People who least need help can then prey on those whose homes or businesses are foreclosed by buying those homes and businesses at 80% of their actual worth.
I'm 72. I wish I had understood this when I was in my 20s or 30s. Instead, I had to learn it the hard way when I was in my 60s.
What you failed to understand is that this is a generational change. Every new generation faces this same problem as old people go out and new people come in.
BULLSHIT , this is the end times for you and me , the NEW WORLD ORDER is a complete take over by SATAN , stop talking shit , try doing a few years research , that might help you.
Bonnita Khaliq life is never that simple. The reality is societies take decades to collapse. The Roman empire took a few hundred years of decline until Roman finally fell. This is why they don't care, they may be working with Satan himself but these aren't the end times by a long shot and they know it. If you think for a moment that Satan doesn't want you to suffer for a very long time here on earth then you are the fool not me.
I was only joking when i said i was smarter than you , that is a lie , i am pretty thick really , but not stupid if you know what i mean.
Take it easy.
Bonnita, In the 1950s and '60s, I attended worship services regularly and read at least some Bible verses every day. I was acquainted with such phrases as, "the time of the end" (Dan. 11:40), "...then shall the end come." (Matt. 24:14) and ...that great day of God Almighty" Rev. 16:14) but it wasn't until the publication of The Late Great Planet Earth that I was first introduced to the phrase, "the end times". It took me another decade to understand why the author of that book understood his Bible so much differently than I did.
You seem to agree with me that Satan is real and that his goal is nothing less than a complete takeover of our planet (which might be called a new world order). My question is this: Do you think you have things all figured out and only need to enlighten the rest of us? (In which case, what kind of research do you think might help me?) Or are you interested in dialogue with those of us who think the purpose of prophecy is not so much to let us know in advance what will happen as to help us deal with events AS they happen?
The vast majority of people know not why they are being played like pawns on a chess board. These are economic maladies are not happenstance. If you want to know the who and the why behind it, then all you have to do is point the finger at the one group who is above any and all criticism, who cry the loudest. And then you will have your answer.
I didn't know there were Jews in Ireland.
They keep saying Ireland is one of the richest countries in the world 🌎 that's a total fucking lie 🙄
You ARE your own walking job....don't wait for others to supply you with a job.....got to moved forward and make progress on your own. There's tons of places where you can offer a product or service at a better price than the competition.
7 year old video
When was this video made? UA-cam says it was published this month - Jun 2016. If this isn't current, what's the point?
Because even still today the Irish people are saddled with that debt!! Are you thick? There's members of that government still in office today ! Michael Martin and Eamon Ryan both have ministerial pensions from that government and are somehow leading the country today?! Bertie told people to go way and kill themselves when they got foreclosure notices. National spending now at record breaking levels and very little to show for it. But what's the point? right?....
No meds can help if the problem causing it, is not solved
It's stress for poor people driving mad all over the world everyone looking for the money
peter southerland theres one for ya bilderberg boy.
Why is Irland having so much trouble with its economy?
Because big daddy UK isn't their to save them
ReddyforLenny you must be asleep or stupid Ireland is having no trouble with its economy now.billions are been invested in new motorways .a metro for Dublin ect almost full employment.thats why huge numbers of non nationals have moved here .over 100.000 of these are british born .biggest problem we have is a shortage of housing stock as theres more profit in office and hotel construction.
I wonder where McGregor was at this Time!
they never had a great economy
When push comes to shove over there, they know exactly where to go. Ellis Island. Expect another mass exodus, as they did centuries ago, during the potato famine.
Thanks to Ted Kennedy the amount of Irish allowed to immigrate is much smaller than in the old days.
Africa for Africans, Asia for Asians, White countries for Everyone IS White Genocide.

needed to be bailed out by the English and now need the UK importing 12% of irish exports to keep them afloat.... they should of just stayed and been a scotlanf... Scotland currently runs a £15 billion budget deficit yearly this is 10% of GDP and they have no worries cause england covers it not that i agree but economically republic of ireland debt to gdp wouldnt be 123.7% in 2013. would of been 10% under the UK :) sounds better than needing bail outs adding to the debt.
*****
just imprisomed by the EU get rid of 1 for another good job... and you do know the monarch lost its power after the english civil war.... so all you broke away from was the government that would of bailed you out, not putting you in this debt crisis.... but what would i know apart from the fact the queen hasnt risen taxes even when government asks.... what fyi benefits us the consumer but enjoy the growing unemployment along with growing debt.. and tell me where is the republic of ireland represented in the Eau commission? so you chose going from 48% unrepresented to 100% smart move broski.
*****
lol, yet you couldnt argue against any of my points? clearly dense for pointing out flaws right...
just gonna point out the Eu are pushing to fine apple even against the republic of irelands governments requets.... lol just zero representation good luck broski.

called having a job, appreciate it that the irish dont know what that is, with the way their economy that is....but good comeback on proving how much free time you unemployed sobs have... you answer youtube responses as priorities it seems.
What is it with you Brits and your penchant for talking utter shite and drivel? Here are the FACTS for you.
The Central Statistics Office (CSO) has just announced the counrty's GDP expanded 7.8% in 2015. Even better, in the last quarter it grew a massive 9.2%.
That's the fastest growth rate in the whole of the EU - by far.
So what gives? How did Ireland grow so fast last year when the UK only managed 2.2% - a number that was still better than most other developed nations.
A huge jump in exports - Irish exports increased by almost 20% in last year to over €111 billion (£86.27; $123) in 2015. Pharmaceuticals, chemicals, medical equipment and cosmetics were the most popular products leaving Ireland's shores.
Irish people are buying even more things - Consumer spending in the country was in rude health in 2015, at €22,6 billion (£17.5 billion; $25.1 billion) a 3.5% jump from the year before. Over €2.4 billion (£1.9 billion; $2.7 billion) of that was ordered online and delivered directly to Irish homes.
The Irish government is spending less - Ireland's 2015 government expenditure dropped by almost 7% compared to 2014, with the vast majority going on welfare, health and education.
People really like investing in Ireland - compared to last year, capital investments jumped a massive 28% compared to 2014. A late 2015 venture capital report by Inter Trade Ireland said that the number of venture capital funds operating in Ireland had more than doubled, while the average size of funds had jumped from €20 million (£15.5 million; $22.2 million) to €100 million (£77.6 million; $111 million).
The growth also marks another EU success story that pro Brexit commentators - people who want the UK to leave the EU - would probably rather ignore.
So take your worthless Union Jack and shove it up your crack. Still, free, still independent, still proud. ;)
Where's U.K. When Ireland's needs them, eh? Lol.
