Hi everybody ! Today we are going to talk about an american CEO and Irish Castles from the XIX century. Yes, I know the link is strange but in reality reasons are verry intrusting. So pay close attention !
"Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Facebook has recently bought a castle in Ireland, a thing that can ask questions. But he is not the only one who use this old technique that started in the XX century.
So, to what extent castles bought by Zuckerberg and other rich men is a symbol of american domination ?
There are many reasons that can explain this purchase and the first one is the fact that buy a castle is a way of paying low corporate taxe rate and in consequence having more money like document C shows us. This document is an extract from "The Dial" and is biaised source which can be in links with an other article, from a biaised source too call "siliconrepublic.com",so it's document B. In this extract, we learn that in Dublin which the beginning of Facebook has started. Since, META with Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp havs come a huge iriish organisation with a lot of employees and has the surname of "Silicon" in reference of the Silicon Valley.
Therefore, it's a positive opinion for Zuckerberg unlike document C. In this document, we deals with low corporate taxe, like I tell you, but also with the fact that groupes such as META have a huge importance on the Irish economy so the gouvernment can't have the power to decline the purchase of castles.
Another important point to explain the big domination of USA is the geography of Ireland. The South part of Ireland is in European Union and is not far from Europe so with theise purchases of castle it's a way to achieve the goal of theise american riche men.
Document A, that is an article writted by the reliable neutral overview source the BBC, deals with the fact that in this country, there is an educated work force who speaks english-like in the USA-help for the developpment of the domination of these states. Dicuments A and C can be linking because of their conclusions; the implantation of american people in Ireland is not disinterrested but mostly a way to have a bigger impact in all the word.
For Document D, it's like a global conclusion; this document from the "Irish examiner" deals with the fact that buying an Irish castle is not a serious situation fort Zuckerberg, like we can show with his Clothes unlike at the clothes of Political Irish men.
In conclusion, bought Irish Castles is a way for riche american people, such as Zuckerberg, to have more importance, power and not just in the USA but around the World. So this act has an huge impact.
So, how Irish politicals can do for not letting american people bought other castles without having a decrease in their economy ?"
Thanks you guys for your attention, I'm waiting for your answers !
