I am half joking, OK, but we do put up with all those huge American companies that earn 100s of millions of pounds and then arrange to pay 99% of their tax in Ireland by having "Intellectual Property" charges to an Irish parent.

How did those US companies end up in Ireland? Shall we discuss the numbers of Irish workers employed at said establishments?

If they invaded Ireland, it was done with a willing population.
