ouch i could not give the like thumb but ouch and how are we supposed to know which garage is selling this S**t diesel. So fair play to the investigators for doing their job well and catching these but unfortunately there are more to catch

The fuel is green because that’s what our government think is best. How dare you question the collective wisdom of TD farmers, teachers and publicans!

why not if you have the money after all there are private ambulance service

More than half the cost of fuel goes to the state.
The unofficial economy grows more rapidly when the cost of participating in the official economy is onerous taxation. This is not an should not reflect on integrity of ordinary citizens, but rather on the competence of political leaders.

When our political leaders tell us, with determination and conviction, that all debts will be honoured by the state. Not only of the states debts, but also for any bank and bondholder that has fallen on hard times. Then we have a moral charge to withold revenues from this state. In the same way as a responsible adult would deny an infant child access to a firearm or powerful medication. We as responsible adults must do our utmost to deny the state access to revenues until it begins to show the necessary maturity to be able to manage it wisely.
Rather than prison, these young men should be hailed as patriots and given positions in FAS so that they might pass on to others the spirit of enterprise and responsiblity they have shown.

@Sean
That’s like saying a burglar caught should work for security company because he/she knows how to break an entry. It’s said in the next world we get justice, in this world we only have the law. They knew the risks of running their illegitimate business so they should face the consequences.

@Sean, I don’t like my taxes being given to a bondholder no more than as a social welfare benefit receiver who never plans to work, or look for work, in his life… Or to a civil servant who clocks in and out without adding any productivity because he/she knows he can’t be fired…

But I still have to pay my taxes!

@ Rory.
Which law are you referring to?
The law of diminishing returns, supply and demand, natural selection or those devised by the crooks & imbeciles in our Dail?
They have not transgressed any of the first three, while our government has with complete disregard.

@Sean
I’m referring to the common laws of the the Republic which the majority of our citizens abide by, not the theoretical laws you just mentioned. These guys are criminals, a far cry from patriots as envisioned by you.
