pledge #4 get it right this time

"We will construct a new economy built on the pillars of our intellectual infrastructure – our education, our innovation and our creativity."

Ireland's intellectual infrastructure

Our passion for owning physical property should be redirected towards intellectual property. We need a single strategy that will help us to turn our strengths in innovation, creativity and education into a world-class intellectual infrastructure.

Further develop our Universities and Colleges to also provide education for our Diaspora and International Students.

Bi-polar nation

It seems like Ireland is either on a high or a low, there’s nothing in between. As far as objective thinking is concerned, we don’t do it when we’re up and we don’t do it when we’re down. We need something like a Department of Thinking whose only job is to think.

pledge #2 put the people first

"We will first and foremost attend to society's needs and maintain this at the core of our value system."

Health / Education / Social Welfare 

No further cuts in essential services, cut out waste instead 
Excellent Services in Health, Education and Social Welfare(Only for those genuinely in need)
We all are vulnerable at some point in our lives and we all want to be part of a COUNTRY THAT CARES for us as if we are part of a family not a line item or a number.

Mind and Care for the VULNERABLE: the Sick, the Young, the Old, the Disabled etc. etc. as an expression of out National Pride.
