Famous quote of the day.....
Question: If you could live forever, would you and why?
Answer: “I would not live forever, because we should not live forever, because if we were supposed to live forever, then we would live forever, but we cannot live forever, which is why I would not live forever,”
~ Miss Alabama’s Heather Whitestone in the 1994 Miss USA contest, who was later selected as Miss America 1995.
Hmm....interesting point on the minimum wage being increased to 3IEP(see debate forum).......but i'am not convinced by it am afraid.If private company's are setting up in eIreland,won't they surly just say away from 0 skill workers?Or worse yet just stay away all together?Or just start off hiring levels 2+?Most countries in Erepublik are a minimum of just 1,so why setup in eIreland?Ok....i'll admit the tax's are good compared to most places,but still.I myself own an Q1 oil company in Texas using mostly 0-1 skill workers, and have plans to set up a Moving ticket in eIreland using my own resources as supply....and thank god the USA does not have 3dollars as a minimum wage.The cause for such low wages is probably down to under-cutting by private company's to try and get people to work for them and driving down wages....the same happens in the market with the sellers....they try to better each other and drive the company to just barely make a profit or break even.....not sure of the solution to this at the moment.Anyway, ill watch and see how the 3IEP works out......but wont be setting up in eIreland just yet.
Ps.......I just released(well pointed out more like) that inflation will rise and cause the IEP to drop its value compared to gold.......and that is never good.Bring back 1IEP minimum wage.

Private companys currently cant get workforce, thus private companys now just strive to get high level workers.
The problem is the state run companys, now hold in excess of 500 workers, thats a little under 1/4 of our population!
Come and work in Norway at:

Still, for new people, like myself, the minimum wage is an incentive to live in Ireland, and then when these new people set up business they will probably set them up here
500 workers in the public companies ? I thought they were only intended as schools for training not permanent careers.
Are we lacking in anything as a nations ? I have like 75 gold if any business needs it to expand
there not permanent careers. Most of the people working are barely skill 2 and there are a few around 3, but they are supposed to be fired once they reach 3.
500 people at skill 2. Geez either were alot bigger or there are
hundreds of inactive workers in those companies. I wouldnt want to be the one who has to go through all that mess
Well ireland has gone through a huge immigration influx and so a bunch of skill 2 is fine, but I haven't gone htrough the list to see how many are inactive.
