This can be accomplished by successive steps, each disguised as having an economic purpose, but which will eventually and irreversibly lead to federation.”<br />

"Jean Omer Marie Gabriel Monnet (French pronunciation: [ʒɑ̃ mɔnɛ]; 9 November 1888 – 16 March 1979) was a French political economist and diplomat. He is regarded by many as a chief architect of European Unity and is regarded as one of its founding fathers. Never elected to public office, Monnet worked behind the scenes of American and European governments as a well-connected pragmatic internationalist."

revenge for being driven off the land by the EUhttp://www.indymedia.ie/article/101788#comment2896212012-05-05T19:30:45+00:00the dispossessedMy dad was forced to leave his farm by the EU and their policies like tens of th...My dad was forced to leave his farm by the EU and their policies like tens of thousands of other Irish small farmers. The EU destroyed his life and soon after he was forced to leave Ireland and go to work in England his spirit was broken and so was his health and he never recovered. The elite politicans who peddled their lies about the santa claus EU or Common market as they liked to call it back then have destroyed countless thousands of lives with their mad policies of greed and their factory farming and driving families off their small farms. It is payback time at last. Vote No for the disapeared small farms and families.Former Green Party members should vote no to the Fiscal Treaty and to CAPhttp://www.indymedia.ie/article/101788#comment2896232012-05-05T19:51:26+00:00Green No VoterAs a former Green Party voter I can identify with the sentiments expressed in th...As a former Green Party voter I can identify with the sentiments expressed in the comments above. The EU has promoted unsustainable agricultural policies and practices. They dont care about the small farmer families who fell victim to those policies as long as the food mountain keeps getting higher and more and more food is produced and left to rot in order to keep prices high while people starve elsewhere. They also have no problems with their harmful farming methods and chemicals they require for this unsustainable high production. It is time to get rid of this Common Agriculture Policy (CAP) before it does any further harm.fantastic Artworkhttp://www.indymedia.ie/article/101788#comment2896432012-05-06T18:39:25+00:00unemployed artistThe excellent artworks very impressive.

Is the artist going to produce more material for the no side? I hope so as it is really eye catching and makes a statement as well. The art work on the no side so far has been very bland just like the arguments they are using and they are failing to get the attention of the public.Listen No campaigners, I don't want a second bailout!

But as well as the artwork the points raised in the article are a bit more original and a lot less boring than what the rest of the no campaigns are saying. Most people haven't been convinced by the weak points raised by the no campaigns on why we will get a second bailout. I don't want a second bailout!

<br />
Its a gift of money at 1% interest to the banks who promptly use it to buy government bonds at 5-6% interest trousering the difference.<br />
<br />
It's supposed to give them "liquidity" to give loans, but why would any bankster in his right mind loan money to risky small business, house buyers or ordinary people when they can bet on a sure thing by buying soverign debt bonds guaranteed by the state and policed by the troika and the other financial terrorists and lackys from goldman sachs.<br />
<br />
It's all a big scam. Bailout it certainly is not. Call it what it is: <br />
Scam loans to banksters to bet on a sure thing paid for by the great unwashed through austerity and social misery.<br />
<br />
With the added bonus of causing countries like greece and ourselves to have to sell off and privatise our lucrative state assets and utilities such as water, electricity roads and telecommunications to vulture capitalists at firesale prices.<br />
<br />
Also,labour rights are damaged and wages are pushed down. Always good for a laugh for corporate scum.<br />
<br />
Kudos for farmers for coming out on this issue. Keep those GM pushing Labelling law undermining EU fuckers out and don't let them destroy the potential of organic agriculture in Ireland, and our clean water, in favour of large scale chemically pumped low nutrition value corporate monoculture farming. It's all we have left.<br />
<br />
no, it is a bailout, lefty..http://www.indymedia.ie/article/101788#comment2896582012-05-07T09:36:54+00:00opus diablos..its just that its US, the working creators of the national wealth, who are bai.....its just that its US, the working creators of the national wealth, who are bailing out the busted property gamblers and absentee offshore landlords who broke their own casino with unrestrained greed. <br />
<br />
And we will continue bailing them into further 'growth', their carcinogenic addiction, with our hospitals, education and social services and infrastructure for the foreseeable future, and beyond. <br />
<br />
The direction of travel is Greece-wards...and any Irish government with a clue what is going on would be talking to Greece, Portugal, Spain and Italy to organise a breaking of the neo-liberal sidetrack Europe has been hijacked onto. Scandanavia is the direction we should be focused on. Instead we have a serial musical-chair rotation of deferential anal-osculators down on their knees behind the obese parasitic global bankers pillaging the planet for their abstracted coffers. A rotation of home-grown mercenary viceroys on the corporate, as well as the public, payroll.<br />
<br />
This treaty is just one more nail in the shredded remains of our democratic rights over our national future. It is the culmination of the PD program of extraction of maximal monetised resources from the island, and from all national entities resisting their post-national oligopoly. <br />
<br />
Thats why they prefer to see our young, educated population economically deported rather than stay and demand their rightful share of the national wealth...it would mean the redistribution of the accumulated pillage of centuries of dynasty-building accretion. And it would require that Britannia, source of most of our debts, make reparations for its centuries of predation, not just here but across the globe it still vampires on.<br />
<br />
I'll suggest, again, that people check out http:www.treasureislands.org for a sketch of the parasitic, white-collar, criminal networks. kudos to the farmers for coming outhttp://www.indymedia.ie/article/101788#comment2897092012-05-08T14:34:12+00:00truth tellerYes absolutely kudos to the farmers for coming out.

It is a pity that none of our political parties have the courage to do likewise.former yes voter reconsidershttp://www.indymedia.ie/article/101788#comment2897252012-05-09T15:42:14+00:00farmer and former yes voterAs a Farmer, I used to take on board the views of our representative organisatio...As a Farmer, I used to take on board the views of our representative organisations such as the IFA and vote accordingly. However on this occasion I have big doubts about voting yes. I feel that the euro is an unstable currency and while political parties may believe that politically it is a good idea, economically it is just not working. At the end of the day it will be the economics that will determine it one way or another. The politicans have their interests to consider and I understand this but farmers dont have to listen to the politicans on this occasion.
