Minimum wage. Pah says she.

And there you have one hell of an example why this corporate capitalistic system is much like a cancer... Edit: and there are alternatives: For example Venus Project
Hmm i wonder why its doing that......ARGHS NO STOP, ROLLBACK ROLLBACK...F*** That's how i learned to "Always Backup"!!
I find those that most moan about capitalism are those who have plenty of food (thanks to capitalism), are posting about it on their cheap computers (thanks to capitalism) and have no alternative that works (thanks to communism being shit).

I pay more than minimum wage - if people are worth a wage, that's what you should pay them, not try to shaft them down to a lower wage. According to the worlds richest woman though, Australia should get rid of the minimum wage altogether so that she can pay her workers whatever she likes to compete with regions like Africa. Source[^]. Interestingly enough, she has previously suggested that people who are jealous of wealth could be just as wealthy as her if they stopped drinking and smoking, and spent more time working (presumably at her company to make her richer still). After all, she started from nothing so she knows what she's talking about. Oh wait, she inherited a fortune, so perhaps she doesn't. Fortunately for Australia, their Prime Minister has poured scorn on the idea.

It is no wonder she became rich, she never had to worry about boyfriends, husbands, making love or looking good. What a fat, ugly, heifer that is. I need eye-bleach.

I agree completely. If only those lazy corpses (starved to death due to cash-crops for the capitalist companies being grown on their subsistence lands) would get off their fat backsides and log on using their cheap computers (that still somehow somehow cost several years annual income - thanks again capitalism) to complain to their governments that may or may not be in the pockets of mutinational democratic charities greedy, corupt, amoral companies the world would be a better place! The alternative? Benign global dictatorship. Modesty prevents me from suggesting a suitable candidate for president of the world ;) Andy B

I have seen this before, and noted that it would need an unparalleled commitment from ALL nations, not just capitalist ones. For it to work, all nations would need to sign up and follow it. It would, effectively, be the end of nation states.

Well, if we're ever going to live like they do in Star Trek, nation states are one of the first things that have to go.

She's been heaping up the sillities indeed. Maybe she's looking for a mate and her eyes fell on the Romney.

She should lead by example. If she were to live on $2 per day, I'm sure that it would save the company an absolute fortune. And all the managers, too. Why should it be only the workers who have to starve? They're already paid less than the managers, so the biggest savings, which would help most in this competitive world, would come from cutting managerial salaries. If it's all right for one "class" to be poor, it's all right for all "classes" to be poor. Why should poverty be the exclusive right of those who do all the work?

As far as I'm concerned, minimum wage laws are around because of people like her!

[sarcasm again] And what would you have the poor managers do? Commute using public transport, or even worse, fly with low-cost air companies or, God Forbid, Economic?

However, we are far from ideal, and these people will all keep doing as this fat c**t does till we all gather the nuts and go pay them as they deserve.

Communism has NEVER been able to feed itself. It is intrinsic human nature, and no amount of political will can change that. Certainly China cannot grow enough food to feed itself, and the USSR was always subject to the whims of the USA as that is where most of its grain came from.

I didn't mention Communism. My own, very reasonable, plans for a new world order would first of all seek to manage the planets population down to a sustainable level via a series of genetically-engineered super-virii that rendered the majority of the populus sterile. Of course we'd still need people to till the land and produce food for the remaining breeding herd of humanity so I would have the dregs of society, those that have produced nothing of value retrained to perform the tasks manually and save the remaining fossil resources for the future. I'd probably start with criminals and work down to lawyers and accountants. Hmm, more ideas are formulating as I type but I need to shave my head and feed my persian cat just now. Andy B
