Job losses everywhere you turn, and that's just the beginning.

You labor lovers pushed and pushed for a better deal for the battler, yet, despite the many warnings you just kept pushing.

Just spare a thought for those whos lives you have helped to ruin when they find themselves unemployable thanks to the IR laws businesses are now faced with.

$25 per hour for sweeping floors means nothing if there are no floors to sweep.

Well done, you have achieved your goal, you have managed to cost hundreds, if not thousands of jobs all because you found the urge to interfere with others arrangements.

Her me loud and clear.

You will see unskilled workers working for $15 per hour just to put a meal on the table.

I have said many times, It is the governments role to support low income earners, not businesses.

But you just won't be told.

i once met a guy[a real estate bankruptcy accountant]
he was paid $2000 an hour just to think

nice guy
but all he could do was think in numbers

just like bankers are paid huge bonus to do

i know a cleaner..who signed a howard work contract
by the time he gets paid...he is looking for the next job to pay the bills for the last job[the one he waited 2 weeks to get paid for]

its sad you so begrudge those getting puitance
to clean the ccccrap from your dunny

how about then nurses..that going to clean your butt
when your old and gray[i bet you begrudge them getting a living wage or paid leave or holiday pay too]

i can live without you lot

but dont begrudge the cleaners
forced to clean up after you lot

bah
hope you catch some bugs from ya dirty phone
the cleaner spat into..or your 9 course meal on tic

One way forward is to make the RBA create the new money to equal GDP + inflation instead if borrowing from the US Federal Reserve who just create it from nothing anyway.What's wrong with the RBA computers? Are they inferior to the US ones or the Chinese ones?

$86 billion pa is added to our money system as debt by private banks to equal inflation + growth.We have let the private banking system own our productivity.Our RBA could reduce our taxes enormously by doing it's proper role of money creation.Our economy would boom if our taxes were to be reduced.

The other issue is Govt waste.That must end.Labor are clueless corrupt and incompetent.

OUG, I here what you say loud and clear, but you don't here me.

First to nurses. Many work weekends, nights ( sift starts at 4 pm) and public holidays. They make a fortune! Much better pay than police who often risk their lives on a Daliy basis.

Now to cleaners.
Nobody without skills can expect to work 38 hours per week and enjoy a comfortable life style. It is simply crippling the country by expecting this to happen.

At no point do I say they don't deserve to liv, hat I do say is that to simply force businesses to pay high wages is where the problem lies.

Perhaps if w had a decent government, that, instead of wasting billions on indigenous, boat people and failed projets, then they could afford to support these unskilled worker and remove the burden from business.

All these IR laws are doing is costing jobs, by either non employment, owners doing more hours, o by closure or taking their job elsewhere.

You see, you lot don't see that the jobs are still ther, they ar just not here in AUs.

Obviously you have to learn the hard way, but try explaining this to someone who has lost their job due to unaffordable wages.

Of cause, some businesses are just preparing themselves for te carbon tax, because no doubt there will b measures put in place to mak it harder for these businesses to shed staff once this tax is in.

Unless you run a business you have little to no ideas how I all works.

rehctub,

I get where you're coming from. The hide of all those plebian cleaners demanding a living wage is outrageous. They should scuttle back to their hovels and be happy that their superiors even deign to provide them with a soapy rag and a bucket (on the house).

You sound like you've stepped straight from the pages of a tale of Victorian England. Thank goodness we don't have chimney-sweeps these days. You'd have a field day with them.
