43% of Irish want to sell their children into debt to bail out wealthy European bankers

You can't make this stuff up.
The Sunday Independent poll in Dublin says 57 percent favor a loan deal that requires senior lenders to Irish banks -- chiefly other banks in Britain, Germany and the United States -- to suffer partial write-offs on their investments.

The remaining 43 percent polled agree with the existing European Union policy that defaulting on debts would cause unacceptable shockwaves in global banking. The paper said results were based on phone polling of 500 people, with a 3 percent margin of error.

The risk to the wealthy is far to great. The little Irish dears won't mind shelling out to bail out the bad investors I'm sure. They've always been known to be a docile culture.

Nailed it!
