You probably have to be Irish to get a lot of the references or to at least have lived in Ireland but no matter where you live it always sucks to see your mates pack their bags and go. I live in a small Irish town and it is very noticeable when you see all the people you went to school with packing their bags and heading for Australia. But Ireland has always been a nation of emigration, as a people and a government we don’t know how to take of our children or our youth.
