it is said that 2.1 million Irish emigrated to America between 1845-1855
the other 4 million died ....
It is said that there are more Irish people in America than in Ireland. The Irish population is around 4.5 million now, at least 800,000 of these are recent immigrants.
Sadly and Ironically, Ireland (a country that relied so much on other people taking its people in the past) is trying to cut down on asylum seekers and unskilled immigrants. Now that Ireland has one of the best economies in the world they have become a bunch of f*ckers!
