Unions pushing 4 per cent wage boost as real paypackets decline
By Emilia Terzon, Gareth Hutchens, and Daniel Ziffer

Australia's biggest employers are under pressure to give their workers pay increases above 4 per cent this year, as real wages go backwards and the union movement ramps up pressure.

Erkläre jemand diese himmelschreiende #Ungerechtigkeit, die unserer #Gesellschaft zerstört:Und weil es Keiner tut können wir uns das Sozialsystem, Bildungssystem, usw. nicht mehr leisten und müssen stattdessen Aufrüsten, um den Reichtum von #Merz zu verteidigen 🙁

#Fakt: Der tägliche weltweite Umsatz an Devisen ist ungefähr genauso groß, wie der weltweite jährliche Export von Dienstleistungen!

Quelle Statistica:
1) #Devisen: de.statista.com/statistik/date…
2) Dienstl.: de.statista.com/statistik/date…

Zumindest mir kann niemand erklären, dass dieses Geld, das täglich einmal um den Globus gejagt wird und sich dabei auch noch vermehrt irgendeinen realwirtschaftlichen Nutzen hat außer, dass es Billionaire ohne Arbeit noch reicher macht und dadurch das soziale Ungleichgewicht immer dramatischer verschärft. Dies könnte man ganz einfach durch eine #Devisentransaktionssteuer bekämpfen aber dafür fehlt der politische Wille.

Jetzt würde die #Union + #FDP sofort argumentieren: “Mit einer #Transaktionssteuer wird doch das Sparbuch von Oma Lieschen Müller enteignet!” Ihr menschenverachtenden neoliberalen Trottel, das kleine Sparbuch wird doch schon jetzt durch die Inflation enteignet, denn die mikriegen Zinsen, die Oma Lieschen Müller bekommt können doch nicht einmal die Teuerungsrate abfangen!

Einer der Kipppunkte für unserer Zivilisation und damit die menschliche Zukunft ist der total entartetet unregulierte Finanzmarkt, der mit Summen hantiert, die weit jenseits einer Grenze sind, die niemals hätte überschritten werden dürfen. Dadurch können mächtige Akteure die Billionaire die Macht übernehmen und die Demokratie aushebeln. Dies tun sie bereits und es wird nichts dagegen unternommen, da sie die Macht haben dies zu verhindern. #Merz ist schon dabei Aufzurüsten, um seinen #Reichtum von den Armen verteidigen zu lassen 🙁

Warum halten wir an einem System fest, dass uns alle bis auf ein paar Billonaire immer ärmer macht? Hunger, Armut, Krieg werden durch dieses System nicht bekämpft sondern es profitiert davon. Es macht doch keinen Sinn, die Hölle auf Erden zu erschaffen 🙁

"Grocery prices in the US have jumped about 30% since January 2020, according to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics”

anyone else read that and think bullshit they're up at least 100%? #inflation #affordability

Shoutout to #DagogoAltraide for making the - admittedly neither easy nor convenient - transition from #Windows to #Linux as a #creator, because "The only winning move is not to play!" applies to #Enshittification and the #abuse at the hands of #Microsoft and #Adobe won't be stopped by #regulators and #regulation but by #users & #consumers unilaterally refusing to be #victims in an abusive relationship!

Seriously, #HP #InstantInk combines all the worst features of #subscriptions and #ManagedServices like #ManagedPrintServices with neither benefits.

• Cuz #MPS for #businesses meant that a business gets a 5-6 digit, extremely fast, production-grade printer and only pays for the #consumeables and maybe setup & availability (similar to #utilities) and in return they don't have to worry and in case of problems call the #ServiceProvider instead.

This is how #TriumpfAdler stays in business: You can't buy their office multifunction systems, but only get them as a subscription through a #ServiceProvider.

• Now this makes sense for a copy/fax/print/scan monster that needs to be forklifted and can spit out triple-digit pages per minute: Not every business is willing or able to sink 5+ digits into that, and instead is happy to pay like 9-19¢ per page + a monthly base fee for that, because #accounting hates having to 'depreciate an asset / investment'.

But for #consumer devices like an #Inkjet #Printer, this is just shafting them when instead of being a convenience (like getting #ink mailed) it's leveraged as a means to prevent the #buyer from being an #owner.

• It's like if a #CreditCard provider used for paying for #fuel prevents car owners from refueling a car if they want to buy gasoline (or diesel or whatever) from a different gas station that their service isn't covering.

It's not as if #HPinstantInk means one gets a "#free" Printer / (or even #MultifunctionPrinter) in return like a "full service #leasing" with #cars, but rather it feels as if a car manufacturer can just decide to repo your car the moment you don't extend your "Extended Warranty Service" for another year...

• Personally, I think #InkjetPrinters should be #outlawed and instead people should just get a used #Laser / #LED printer instead.

The rampant #Enshittification is why I'd love to see a reguar "#2Dprinter" to be #OpenSource'd!

• Seriously, #3Dprinting is way harder and at least #Inkjet designs should be in the cards!
