'Remarkable' in the caption for this video is a grose over statement in my opinion. Dublin is receiving most of the benefit of this, while rural Ireland is being left behind with mass unemployment and precarious employment schemes such as 'zero hours contracts' ...i believe we still have a long way to go to reach the accolade of 'remarkable'.
I live in Shannon town, this town has been completely forgotten about. The crime rate has risen sky high and the area is severely lacking in services and activities. So you are right, the only area feeling the new economic growth is Dublin. Towns like shannon and the west of Ireland are completely left behind.
Well the fact remains that Rural Ireland was always poorly invested in regardless of the crisis. And regarding the crisis it's important that the recovery begins in the countries Capital anyway. If dublin didn't recover nobody will. It's a pity so much emphasis is put on Dublin regarding growth because Dublin is under severe pressure keeping up with the infrastructure and growing population to maintain it. We need more Cities and more investment in our other Cities to take the pressure of Dublin.
@@rigelkent8401 Do you really think the price of a better life should be that high? I am not even irish, I found your comment is extremely unsympathetic towards rural Ireland, or naive to say the least. by the time you comment 2017, dublin's housing crisis has already going on for a while. irish government's infrastructure plan is simply lagging behind its population and economic growth
" Remarkable" in youtube heritage indeed it is.Listening to official Ireland's view here I needed to remind myself of idealism and environmentalism neither liked by same because both threaten the narrative behind a consumer driven economy .A Neoliberal agenda has been very effectively managed by the Irish media and underwritten by an international financial class , so that this little story is devoid of the environmental context in these end days of civilization as we know it .The Irish 5 million people create greenhouse gas emissions equal to the poorest 400,000,000 people on the planet ....Context PLEASE.
Irelands public debt stands at 82% of modified GNI or 45% of GDP. 82% being the best marker. We have one of the most stable economies of all the small EU nations. If we hadn't taken on all that debt we'd still be in the sh1ts. Instead we're running a surplus. So we have plenty to invest in housing. Give it another 5 years or so and things will be bright. Our neighbor the UK has a debt to GDP of 104% - god knows what their debt to modified GNI would be, a lot higher than 104% anyway.

If your local area is going bad get up and go to places that are booming and stop complaining.
Rural Ireland does not deserve it because it expects welfare state to help it along. Where is the business mentality that help those areas to develop.
