My Take Home pay at that time 1969, I had just Married the most beautiful Young Girl, in the world (still Married and she is still Beautiful)...My Take Home Pay, By CHEQUE, I remember well --- $93 PER FORTNIGHT.... Yes! --- $93 per Fortnight. Snowy Labourers earned TWICE that. (Jindabyne.) Yes!... Today, Teachers STRIKE in NSW --- They Have MY Support. All Workers...Yes ALL, have seen their wages eroded over the past Decade (Percentage, Cost Of Living) and it is now becoming more precarious. Wages need to RISE ----- The Schoolies are only The Beginning!

Thank you for hat Hinchinbrook. I guess that argument for a Schoolies pay rise could be extended to the Civil Service/ General Government employees . Unfortunately we dont have much authorative economic modling available to indicate what impact that wil have on: (a) The Political Economy (b) The General Economy.
