Ministrowie finansow ustanowili program "pomocy" dla Irlandi. Sklada on sie z 15 miliardow dolarow ciec w programach spolecznych i rzadowych i podwyzszonych podatkow. Dla kraju z 5 milionami mieszkancow to gigantyczna suma. Do czego to sie sprowadza? A przypomnijmy sobie Modes Proposal napisany przez Jonathan Swift w 1729r. w ktorym Swift pokazuje w dosc dramatyczny sposob jak kolonizacja Brytyjska "pozerala Irlandie i jej dzieci" doslowie. Czym sie rozni rok 1729 od 2010? Ano tym ze teraz robi to MFW i UE ale tez z Brytania na czele.
A tu kilka cytatow z Modest Proposal reszta jest dolaczona. Naprawde warte przeczytania jako ze to jest jeden z najlepszych przykladow satyry w jezyku angielskim.
I do therefore humbly offer it to public consideration that of the hundred and twenty thousand children already computed, twenty thousand may be reserved for breed, whereof only one-fourth part to be males; which is more than we allow to sheep, black cattle or swine; and my reason is, that these children are seldom the fruits of marriage, a circumstance not much regarded by our savages, therefore one male will be sufficient to serve four females. That the remaining hundred thousand may, at a year old, be offered in the sale to the persons of quality and fortune through the kingdom; always advising the mother to let them suck plentifully in the last month, so as to render them plump and fat for a good table.
I grant this food will be somewhat dear, and therefore very proper for landlords, who, as they have already devoured most of the parents, seem to have the best title to the children.
I have already computed the charge of nursing a beggar's child (in which list I reckon all cottagers, laborers, and four-fifths of the farmers) to be about two shillings per annum, rags included; and I believe no gentleman would repine to give ten shillings for the carcass of a good fat child, which, as I have said, will make four dishes of excellent nutritive meat, when he hath only some particular friend or his own family to dine with him. Thus the squire will learn to be a good landlord, and grow popular among his tenants; the mother will have eight shillings net profit, and be fit for work till she produces another child.
