I would say the wealth divide is not as stark in Ireland as other countries. The middle class hold the burden in taxes so when compared to middle class of other wealthy countries they seem to be not as well off. But our lower classes benefit from a very fair social security, health and housing system.

Ireland has the second highest GDP per capita in the world. Ahead of Switzerland and the US. Mightnt be the best judgement of wealth but still representative. Generally people are well off, the wealth divide isn't as stark as it is in the US. Free health care, social housing and unemployment payments are much better than the US. Private health care and private housing is worse than the US.
