If ICTU (and CORI) had their way they'd run the country into the ground, and then protect those who have union jobs and let the country run on in recession for years. Risk should always be rewarded, and God knows Ireland needs to invest in small indigenous businesses. They are very much our future, and those with the guts and work ethic to set them up deserve support, and that risky support has to come from somewhere. Shame on ICTU for standing for protected interests over those of small Irish enterprise.
