If you were to break down Brian Cowens anual wages, and work out what he actually gets paid per day, then the figure would be just over €800. That fucking fat c*nt takes home more in a day, than someone on the dole takes home in a month. Not only does the fucker bank 800 quid every day, he also has his "expenses", and God only knows what that includes.
Our Taoiseach actually earns more money than the President of the United States of America. Get on that, a tiny little Island in the north Atlantic pays its political leader more brass than the worlds biggest superpower pays theirs. Still though, poor Barack Obama isn't the only one who's pay cheque is dwarfed by the one Biffo gets, the leaders of the UK, France, Germany, Holland, Belgium, etc etc are all in that boat too.
I don't know weather to laugh at the lunacy of it, or cry at the sad reality of it. Or alternatively just feel kind of embarrassed about the fact that Europe must be looking on, wondering why we are continuing to borrow billions, while our leaders pay themselves handsomely for a job that they aren't really much good at. If there was an inquiry into ministerial expense claims in this country, just like the recent one in the UK, I reckon it would be so ludicrous and scandalous, that we would actually go beyond a laughing stock, to being the single most undesired member of the EU.
It took me 10 minutes to type this post, the same amount of time it takes Brian Cowen to earn €20 in an 8 hour working day. What a country we live in.
