Why do Australian workers recieve such high benefits ?

Mark K asked:


At the expense of hard working business owners and share holders many Australian workers are paid $17 per hour for performing menial tasks.

They also recieve healthcare and free access to education.

Why should hard working Australians and business owners be forced to supplement the income of those lazy people who do not work hard or become educated ?

It is my opinion that they should have their wages halved to put them back in their place.

The wage situation for the unskilled is out of control in Australia. They need to be put back into their place.

    $17p/h is pretty cheap.

    I pay my staff who have minimal or non educated tasks a minimum of $25p/h

    If you are so tight that you cant afford $17p/h then your either not charging enough to your clients or your just plain greedy.
