[QUOTE="user 4386, post: 661470, member: 4386"] That is actually the average income for all Australians, including billionaires, not the basic wage. The [B]median[/B] pay (what most Australians earn) is $1019 a week ($52,988 a year), The minimum wage in Australia as of July 2021 is[B] $772.60 per week[/B] for full-time employees (38 hours per week), which equates to a minimum hourly rate of $20.33. The only consolation being that the lowest 48% of Australian earners pay no net tax - but since almost nobody knows that it would not mean much, and does not pay the groceries. Inflation is biting now..... Probably one of the few reliable statistics - I agree that most stats are rubbery. [/QUOTE]
