I think the problem is;Ireland never made any widgets for apple or had the design concept,so it doesn't warrant that 13 billion(plus interest).
The Eurocrats are using this as a test case in Ireland and do not care about the fallout for the Irish economy.They see Ireland doing well with multinational jobs,and where did you pull that 7% figure from,your ass??The Eurocrats are hoping to hold a test case on our turf because the end game is they see us doing well with multinationals and want a slice of the action, ie they want to commute irish jobs to mainland Europe.....Is it really wise to take this 13 billion(plus interest) when if we DO TAKE IT - it will be divvied up amongst EU states,America and China.....We will be left with crumbs and a BAD reputation that will damage the jobs economy as other businesses will take note...
