Apart from an amusing juxtaposition of pseudonyms this from Affordable housing at The Standard suggests a lack of appreciation of an affordable state of welfare.

$15 is NOT a “living wage”.
fattyTrue…but it could be if it was introduced alongside a more ethical tax system, such as the first $27000 earned is tax free, and abolish GST.
Also need free healthcare, free education, food in schools, universal child supplement, state housing etc.

/ January 18, 2013Reading the affordable housing link it is quite clear that these people think the govt should be in our lives more, taking more tax from the ‘wealthy’, telling us where to live and what to live in etc etc. They naively think that govt and the bureaucrats know best and will always do what’s best. Those of us who have been around have a less rose-tinted view of life due to experience. These people need to take a reality pill.
