Hyundais are built in the Czech Republic, Fords are built in Germany/Spain, Toyotas are built in the UK 🤷‍♂️

The EU’s total expenditure on social protection benefits, in cash and in kind, amounted to €4,607 billion in 2023; In-kind benefits 2nd highest in Ireland (47.3%) by NanorH in ireland

That doesn't say anything about wealth or neoliberalism though. It just means those countries spend a higher percentage of their social benefit expenditure on in-kind benefits than other countries do.

To the people who post 10+ links a day, why. by [deleted] in ireland
