We may be alcoholics but Ireland has the highest quality of life in the world and the highest GNP per capita of the EU (bar Luxembourg). See 'The Economist' studies. You shouldn't really call us alcoholics - i think the case is that Americans can't handle their beer at all. Pansies. Americans are drunk on like 6 pints. Pathetic.
Um...most Americans are Irish dumbass

Ok, this is getting out of hand. WWII was a COMBINED effort between all the countries. Stop your ego trip and lets all realize what children we sound like.

40 million Americans claim Irish ancestry. Not a majority. Besides - American life has made them soft. No time for drinking - work, work, work, I'll live when I retire....

Notice how you skipped what I posted. Guess you like having a huge Ego, this is not the Irish I know. People from Galway and its surrounding towns must be nicer.

To be honest I just posted all this to get a rise out of you Americans. I just thought I'd inject a bit of controversy into the forums to see how people respond. Kind of an experiment. The views I stated are pretty wide of the mark Irish-wise.

I have never seen such hostility and I have gone all around Galway, hmm... maybe its because I don't go around yelling and constantly talking on a cell phone. I must not be your "steriotypical American."

In USA you can go from successful to destitute in the bat of an eyelid. In USA the bottom line is the dollar - life can take a back seat.

Which system do you prefer?

Sure, i guess your right. You won't see old cars left in the gutter and destroyed houses with people in them in europe like you would in the US. On the other hand, the average american is better off than the average european, cause if you work hard in the US, you'll earn what you get right?

Actually, you are wrong, Lib-Slayer...

Communism is a political Theory, using Capitalism to build up capital, followed by the introduction of a Socialist state to spread the capital to the People until the People own everything, and then the allowance of the State to wither away.  Either this or advocating class struggle to aid in the overthrowing of the Capitalist system.

When it becomes instated in real life (so far), it tends to breed corruption and greed in the controllers, and the State ends up controlling all aspects of the Communist system and not allowing for the final step to occur.

To see how people respond?

Since when has it ever been any secret how people respond when you shit all over their country, race, ethnicity, religion, etc?

That's like saying "I did an experiment to see what would happen if I raped my neighbors 14 year old daughter."  Oh...you couldn't guess to begin with?

You're an idiot.  I would HOPE that you are a piss poor representation of your country, because if the whole of Ireland is like you......I'll have to remember to never visit.

In response to some karma comments...

I'm not communist. That system of government DOES NOT WORK.

Europe is not run by jews. It's part of the reason I love the place so much. If that was posted by an American then I find that frankly hilarious given that your country seems to be a satellite state of Israel, run by jewish money, jewish think tanks and jewish lobby groups. They have political weight in your country well above what they should, demographically speaking.
