This is pathetic. Oh we'll make the top 250 companies self report and then we'll ask them really nicely why their ratio is off and then nothing will happen. It should be mandatory for all publicly listed companies to publish data on their salaries

Like this won’t result in CEOs aiming for sick kda ratios.

Be honest here, how many of you think Scott Morrison will win the next election.

I don’t.

But I was reminded of how I’m in my own lefty bubble this morning at work when some dickhead (member of the public, not a co-worker) used the term “little abo kids” and I was literally speechless.

The CPG are absolutely disgusting. More interested in fluff journalism and rubbing shoulders with those in power than doing actual journalism work. Alice Workman is the exception to this.

Useless pack of hacks. Not a single one of them bothered to report on Morrison’s “I stopped these” boat trophy despite it being in his office for years. We had to learn it from the NYT.

You'd think these true believers in free market Capitalism would understand the basics: The less workers are paid- The less disposable income they have. Which means less money going to places like Delis/Bakeries/Cinemas/Restaurants/Pubs etc. When you're paid less, and your bills/mortgage/living expenses stay the same- You're gonna spend less on luxury goods.

The first nail was removing penalty rates for an entire class of workers. Now they have less money (see above).

BUT HEY, lets cut worker's pay, giving it all to the managers, that'll give the economy a good sugar hit of stimulus!

I guess it’s just more punching down. Australians love to demean and take from those “beneath” them.

Frydenberg on the radio now saying that negative gearing is aimed at battlers because over a million people that partake in it have a taxable income of less than $80,000p/a.

I’m ex ADF. Had zero issues getting a job post-service.

The amount of pissing and moaning from these people who put zero effort into presenting themselves properly, educating themselves or upskilling is staggering.

There’s a real culture of entitlement where ex-servicepeople feel they’re owed a job because they enlisted for a few years and player soldier.
