This is an Australian woman named Gina Rhinehart. She is the richest woman in the world according to Forbes. She thinks that minimum wage is too high, and that for the west to be compeditive with Asia, we have to pay workers LESS.
I think this woman is vile.
How can she, as a woman that has made her fortune from exploiting cheap labor, dare say that western workers are lazy and that's why we have economic problems. Her solution is not that Asia should raise their minimum wage, her solution is to make western workers work for LESS money.
It disgusts me.
I think there should be a global minimum wage. and it should be a LIVING WAGE, a wage which allows everyone a decent standard of living.
