11 days agoIt began years ago. That’s why things are so bad in Greece, most of the people able to leave have done already in search of a better life and leaving behind a shortage of skilled labour and labour in general. Meanwhile non economically active people, mostly children and retired still need to be supported somehow and unsurprisingly the public finances are in a poor state.
Four members of the richest British family, worth £37bn, have just gotten prison sentences for paying 1/10th the minimum wage to their servants. Paying them a legal wage would’ve kept them out of prison and been like you or me dropping a penny into a charity box, but they wouldn’t do it, even for people that they saw every day. Billionaires are sociopaths.
