>This concept of the “squeezed middle” in the Irish housing market was identified by the Commission on Housing, whose 2024 report put it as applying roughly to households earning between €40,000 and €90,000. Too well off to apply for social housing, but not earning enough to survive in the private market, they have few clear routes into the housing market
Nobody will.
The middle class in Ireland exist to be the good little worker bees for the multi-nationals which keep the country flush with corporate tax money and prop up the welfare class and those eligible for HAP (or whatever program it is in Ireland now- left the country for years !!!)
Definitely not the fucking government anyway. Absolutely nothing in the budget this year if you get up and go to work everyday.
Isn’t it amazing how it works huh?
Your neighbor in a social estate who doesn’t need to wake up early for work may actually be better off than you i because you just don’t make enough to be competitive.
Not even mentioning rich fat cats with multiple properties of course.
Why does this sub always direct their hate at working class people instead of the politicians, developers, vulture funds and landlords that make the country’s housing policy?
Absolutely fucking no one. Vote for the parties that offer the biggest tax cuts, only thing that matters.
Well just a glance around world politics these days seems to indicate they want rid of the middle anyway. The rich are getting substantially richer, the poor are getting poorer and the middle are disappearing
Oh I’m in this post
