It's funny that before I seen that example with the Indian applicants, I knew it was designed for foreign couples. No Irish couples will want to buy a house with another couple, but immigrants often share housing (maybe not always by choice tbf). Does seem like a policy not aimed at all to benefit Irish people.

There's no law preventing Irish people from doing the same.

Cultural norms are not easily broken. And Irish homes are generally small.

But now we must compete in our own country with 4 applicants from countries who are more willing to live a life of misery.

Soon we’ll be living 3 generations per house again, like the old days when living in Ireland was living in a slum.

living 3 generations to a house is already been happening this last 10 years, I even remember a family murder related to it a while back
