Give the country a break!

Re: The living wage argument.

The system today sees many workers get paid, but it's not enough to live on. But you can go along to the local government office for a top up on the taxpayer, and the employer gets subsidised.

It's a good deal for the employer. The other option is for the employer to pay a living wage, and give the taxpayer, and the country that they live in a break. Some politicians are trying to run with the hare and the hounds, and not upset the situation as reported in the media, the rackets on housing buying and selling to make a fast buck, which keeps our young and old in distress. I hear some say we need to help our community in any way we can?

How about by standing up and demanding action on the housing pirates? Henri Ford was asked: ‘Why do pay your workers more than anyone else?' He answered: ‘So that they can buy my cars'. This is a paramount problem, which if left to fester will become a disaster
