Slow Change, slow descent
Nov. 18th, 2020 08:10 pmIt's lovely seeing Irish stores even the small ones, especially the small ones, go online. I think its the only way they are going to survive the pandemic. I wish more stuff was available here in Ireland, that's the bottom line why I go to Amazon.co.uk, that and the fact that Irish prices are still generally higher, we like to tax everyone except big business which we need to stop doing. I'm good with taxes myself but giving corporations a free ride to entice them to come over here is not the way to go. Build small local sustainable businesses, Irish goods for Irish markets. I used to be all about globalisation but I can't see that as the way forward anymore. What's sad is to see how year after year the selection of goods gets smaller and smaller, the variety available less and less, truly the slow emergency I think.
