Good to see your Pro Pollution............
Sometimes the wealthiest of the wealthy are brought up as a fawn in the forest
Let's do a quick recap. She proposes 2 dollars per day for Australian workers; let's say an 8 hour workday. That's 25 cents per hour. Gina rakes in 2 million dollars per hour. So by her standard of "working hard", she works 8 million times harder than all these low-life regular humans
World's richest woman says poor should work harder
Rinehart made her money the old-fashioned way:
She inherited it.
Her family iron ore prospecting fortune of $30.1 billion makes her Australia's wealthiest person and the richest woman on the planet.

Liberals 66% (on environmental and economic issues; the Liberals are the Aussie Tories)
Labor 30% (can't they spell?) (no major issues)
Greens 11% (on domestic policy issues)
Australia - like most countries - needs me as PM. They've just has a Brit as PM (Julia Gillard) and they need another. With my sensible, common-sense policies the Convicts will have a bright future.

Australia has a new Tory Prime Minister.
Australia's new Tory PM Tony Abbott has said his top priorities are to abolish a tax on carbon emissions and to stop asylum-seekers arriving by boat.
In a show of common sense, the left wing Labor Party has been kicked out of office and the right wing Liberal-National coalition of Tony Abbott has been elected. It is the first time the Liberal-National Coalition has been in power since 2006.
The Australian Election Commission confirmed on its website that the Liberal-National coalition had won 88 seats in the House of Representatives, and Labor 57 (there are 150 MPs in Australia's House of Representatives, compared to 308 MPs in Canada's House of Commons and 650 MPs in Britain's House of Commons).
Outgoing PM Kevin Rudd has said he will not stand again for Labor leadership.
Jon Donnison, the BBC's Sydney correspondent, was there to see the victory.
Tony Abbott's supporters are ecstatic over his victory
"I am so pleased to see the Labor Party go down the gurgler," one woman told him.
"This is like the joy of a baby being born in the household," said a Sikh man, sporting a splendid blue turban.
"I want to jump 20 feet in the air," he went on.
Tony Abbott has a far "blokeier" image than his intellectual and worldly rival
PM-elect Tony Abbott has said his top priorities are to abolish a tax on carbon emissions and to stop asylum-seekers arriving by boat.
His government would "swiftly implement Operation Sovereign Borders" aimed at "intercepting vessels and turning them around", Mr Abbott told the Herald Sun.
He said he would be receiving his first briefings from public servants on Sunday, in order to begin implementing policy changes.
"Scrapping the carbon tax and stopping the boats are the two most urgent priorities," Mr Abbott said.
"Obviously, we will swiftly implement Operation Sovereign Borders and one component is a much more active programme of intercepting vessels and where possible turning them around - rather than escorting them to Christmas Island."
