yes intersesting stuff up's
howard took things too far
nor labratters took it too far back

go figure eh

ell me man club...have you ever heard
of 'the invisable hand'

thats the code word for things getting done
because each gets a bit..cause its the doing of..'their' bit
that keeps them alive..

so we have a farmer..that grows a cow
who then gets the cow to market..via a driver driving his truck]
that then gets auctioned off till eventually it gets killed[by a paid killer[or slaughterman]..if you prefer..

a specialist slices the beast..and takes out its guts
[that gets made by other specialists into other stuff you call offal
others call gourmet susauge..or tripe

then we got the horn cutting dude
who sends the horns to make ya jelly

and the head cuting dude
who chops off the head..cuts out the tongue
to make your canned spam..[or whatever]

next we got the dude who rip saws the beast in half
puts it into the friderator...pushed along the rails into a truck
then you get the beast

[while cleaners are washing down the kill floor.sharpening the knives..sterilising the hooks..and so much other unseen stuff..only you would know about when its done WRONG..[and lawyers get their pay day by suing YOU*

WELL ANYHOW..YOU GOT THIS BEAST..now
in your clean shop..you take your sharp tongue..and lash your servants to do their bit[making nice expensive cuts,..and cheap sausages with plenty of sulfer in em..to keep the shelf life..

you place an avert[or being a cheapscate..drop a few leaflets
[no doudt forcing the kids to work for slave rates]

or forcing your own kids to do it
to teach them the value of YOUR money

anyhow finally i come into your shop
give you nice clean cash..that you take to your banker
and you accept their bankfees without a wimper

you go to the accountant
paying them without a second thought
[or use that cheapscate..who does it for half price
but costing you double in cash]..

anyhow now your in my shoes
you go to buy stuff..[without a wimper]
pay gst..without blinking...you pay others..without a second thought

yet them bloody cleaners mate
i hope they send you broke

cause you dont appriciate just what not having me sue you
for poisening me is really worth

for want of a clean workplace
you end up going broke

and we will say
we told you so

cheers big ears

*OUG* the likes of *Rectum* do not wish to work. He is just whinging because he can't bleed enough out of us to support his appetite for material wealth.

This situation has been brought about by the privatisation of the necessities of life. Worse still, the privatisation of the necessities of life for the needs of the Australian community by international companies.

What a sell out!

..

This is what you get when you vote for either the child abusers in the liberal/national party or the labour party.

..

which is why I suggest vote *Green*

You can rest assured that *Bob Brown* would not predicate national security on the need to abuse children.

..

A leg of lamb costs *Rectum* less than $5 but I'd wager he'd be selling one for upwards of $25.

..

That is the real problem, not paying everyone a living wage.

dream on you have. very appropriate user name, dont you.

you say. buy. leg of lamb for $5 and sell fr $25. i wish.

wages used t be around 8% of turnover, nowdays thats more like 20 to 25%.

now the sad part about that is that the increase has not all gone to the wage earner. while they have had an increase far in excess of most owners, a large portion of h overall increaae, the one that matters the most to business has been taken up by complience costs.

the nd result, and you can quot me on ths, s tha many busnesses wll close in the foreseeable future.

what do you propose we do about wages when ther are far less employers?

we already suffer from under employment. simply increasing basic wage rates does not matter if hours are cut as a result.

We are seeing th results ofmpoor IR laws right now. Problrm is, once the damage is done it is to late.

Enjoy your self induced poverty I say. You pushed for it, you got it, now you have to live with it, and its about to crumble.

Just remember, its what you lot wanted.

We are seeing the results of a duopoly between the big grocery purveyors undercutting small business...but that seems to be the way our society has fashioned itself.

We've centralised our purchasing options - given ourselves greater choice of product, but less choice in whom we buy it from. That is no reason to dump on employees and deprive them of a fair wage for their time.

Here ya go, rehctub,

Seems we're not going down to gurgler quite as fast as you anticipate - yet...
