ALP keeps dole at poverty levels to undermine conditions of Australian workers
Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Sun, 15/01/2012 - 5:16pmThe following article from the World Socialist Website explains how the Federal ALP is keeping the dole at $243 a week or only $35 a day to try and force people into sub-standard working conditions. To add insult to injury the minister in charge of this decision is former Union official Bill Shorten - showing once again how hostile the union bureaucracy is to ordinary people.
