Quote from: "Shen Li"I'm not surprised because our society today don't have equality. I'm not a communist because that government is corrupt as any form of government. I don't envy those workers who have those kind of ridiculous salary because I'm happy with my eager income. I think this is the problem with some of us because we don't become contented with what we earn but we want more.Quote from: "Henry"
Pampering and overpaying unskilled these labourers hurts the nation in the long run and drives inflation. Companies pass on he cost of these glorified warehouse wokers high wages to all of us.
In Eastern countries if you want to make a good wage you must have a skill that's in demand. The Western world has become unsustainable and will be forced to change in the next decade or so. I don't see much future for people with such a false sense of entitlement if they are unwilling to adapt to the new reality.
You are so right. I think that unions have served their purpose. I absolutely agree that workers should not be abused as they have been in times past. But unions have a stranglehold on employers and even too much power over their members. Let's not even start with how much illegitimate political power they wield.
