So Ireland is now the 12th best place to be born!<p>Not sure about that.
For starters, we're up to our neck in debt.<p>Nothing is planned here with the long term interest of the general population at heart.
We have a dysfunctional political system.<p>For example, we've never had a debate on immigration and yet
from about 0% 15 years ago, now about 25% of births are to foreign born mothers.<p>And now the leader of the party that, while in government, bankrupted us just a little while ago, is again the most popular party leader according to the latest opinion polls.<p>I'd take this prediction with a pinch of salt.
