I emigrated in 1989 to Canada. I've never forgotten why. My children have always thanked for the move. It wasn't easy here to assimilate, but, it was done. I have a keen interest in aircraft, so I used to frequent Dublin airport often. It used to tear my heart out to watch grown men cry like babies, as they watched their children fly off on an Aer Lingus 747, to Boston or New York. But, I left too!!! It demonstrates the condition of the Irish economy in those days. I was unemployable at aged 28!!! It was cheaper for an employer to hire someone in their teens. With a mortgage, what choice did one have? Politicians?!! An Irish joke!!!

@12:33 How right she was...

A very good video

Mikey leland sounds like Martine luther king jr

A lot of people are really struggling in Ireland right now . Do not believe what you see in the media .

I grew up with Mickey and my daughter & I worked for him in the office, in Houston & Washington.

Now it's Australia that are needing a work force. They are still trying to populate Australia.

In recent years the economy in Ireland has been nowhere near so desperate. I hope the illegal immigrants from Ireland found a way to stay legally. America used to be welcoming to Irish immigrants...do not know if it has changed since 87. But like I said the Irish economy can take care of it's own in more recent years.

Really interesting doc. It must have been so easy to move to another country many years ago. It’s now practically impossible unless you have mega money.
