Fair Remuneration and Productivity

What is Fair Remuneration?

It is definitely not minimum wage. No doubt everyone has their own idea of fair remuneration for work performed. Ardent capitalists, boards of directors and shareholders will consider the lowest possible wage they can get away with paying their workers to be too much! Their only interest is how much they put in their own pockets - I wonder what these individuals consider a fair minimum wage to be for the little real PRODUCTIVE work they do? Nowhere near that of the average employee's requirement is certain.

This impression seems to have invaded the highest level of society - the law makers.

Let me elaborate:

Going through quite a large number of WordPress.com 'latest posts' today (Hell, i needed a break from the heavy stuff of the past few days, fixing computer bugs, working on 3 web site layouts, drafting the first several series of customer information articles for graphicline.co.za, Absorbing more Drupal, writing an article for Graphiclineweb blog, and so on...), I came across a surprisingly high percentage of these non-blogs.

Here's a few examples (and I am not including URLs - they don't deserve to get traffic, it will just encourage the 'authors' to continue with this nonsense.
