Pretty close to the same, except that the size of the banks relative to the economy is way bigger over there. And here the bondholders aren't
explicitly guaranteed.

I've heard of Midleton's. Nothing cleans tile grout better.
(I've Jameson's and a bottle of Crown Royal in my bar. Gifts. Should you ever visit and ask for either, you'll get the biggest pour you've ever had. Bottle service in the dining room even. Canadian whisky is vile. And Irish whisky is a close runner up.)

You clearly have not tried Midleton's (even if you did fucking correct my spelling).
Jameson is serviceable for mixing, but isn't up to par for sipping. I've also got a bottle of Powers on my bar, but mostly to satisfy my own sense of Irish street cred. I like it, but I wouldn't proclaim it's excellence. Although I rather enjoyed the effect it had on my lightweight, pilot brother when a few hours into the "hen" party we ran into in Kilkenny he decided he wanted a whiskey. Pussy.
Crown Royal is shit and not Irish.
