Last night, there was a great television special on Ireland. The story was all about the great changes that have been made in that once poor country. Ireland is very much involved in modern technology now and with that has come a great deal of money. They have the second highest GDP in the European community. Unemployment now runs below 5% and suburbs are replacing the farms. And this…the Irish are coming home! A large number of Irish immigrants are leaving the United States and returning to the auld sod.
So, if you were one of the many people in America who hated the Irish immigrants at one time…rest easy, they’re leaving.
St. Patrick pray for us sinners!
ReplyDeleteHey the Irish were nice enough to allow my ancestors a pretty good life after fleeing France and the persecution of the See of Rome.
