      Most of Europe’s internet connection from the US goes through Ireland.

        Even more tax spent to protect massive US corporates. Working out great so far isn’t it? Housing, healthcare, transport, energy, water, all broken. But let’s throw money at this sure. At least we’ll make the lobbyists happy.

          Ah sure fuck the internet cables and autonomy. That 0.2% of GDP on defence is the issue.

            I’m not saying that’s the issue. We should absolutely invest in the defence forces. What I’m saying is that it should be far down the list of priorities, given the real, actual problems happening right now. Not some imaginary threat from across the continent.
