And now she's back with some more helpful advice. Speaking at the Sydney Mining Club, [B]Rinehart said her country's mining industry couldn't compete with nations that are willing to pay workers less than $2 a day for their sweat and labor.[/B] The implicit suggestion: Employers should be free to pay workers whatever they please. This echoes Rinehart's earlier to-do list, in which she urged Aussie lawmakers to cut the minimum wage so that, well, she wouldn't have to spend so much money on things like workers' salaries and benefits. "The evidence is inarguable that Australia is becoming too expensive and too uncompetitive to do export-oriented business," Rinehart said at the Sydney Mining Club. [B]"Africans want to work, and its workers are willing to work for less than $2 per day. Such statistics make me worry for this country's future."[/B] Yep, it's getting harder and harder to be a job creator. [B]Rinehart knows what it means to pull yourself up by the bootstraps. She inherited a fortune now estimated to be worth about $18 billion.[/B] That's a heavy burden to bear. Yet, inexplicably, Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard didn't take Rinehart's advice in the generous spirit with which it was offered. "It's not the Australian way to toss people $2, to toss them a gold coin, and then ask them to work for a day," Gillard said. "We support proper Australian wages and decent working conditions." Socialist. As Rinehart observed in an earlier magazine piece: [B]"There is no monopoly on becoming a millionaire. If you're jealous of those with more money don't just sit there and complain, do something to make more money yourself. Spend less time drinking, smoking and socializing and more time working."[/B] And, apparently, you should be happy with whatever table scraps you receive by way of compensation.[/quote]

When you have lots of money, you can say what ever you want apparently.

What a penis.

What a fat bitch. She looks like your average soccer mom.

I remember reading somewhere on Reddit that apparently she inherited all of her riches :v:

[QUOTE=JETFIGHTER5;37554629]What a fat bitch. She looks a like your average soccer mom.[/QUOTE] Hey my brother used to play soccer and i love my mom

Big talk for the woman that was born into wealth.

[quote]"There is no monopoly on becoming a millionaire. If you're jealous of those with more money don't just sit there and complain, do something to make more money yourself. Spend less time drinking, smoking and socializing and more time working."[/quote] that's pretty rich coming from a fat cunt who inherited 18 billion dollars.

I bet she hasn't had to work a day in her life.

[QUOTE=SgtCr4zyGunz;37554648]that's pretty rich coming from a fat cunt who inherited 18 billion dollars.[/QUOTE] I'm guessing 'That's pretty rich' was intentional?

"Africans want to work, and its workers are willing to work for less than $2 per day. Such statistics make me worry for this country's future." These things make me worry too, but not about your "country's future".

"There is no monopoly on becoming a millionaire. If you're jealous of those with more money don't just sit there and complain, do something to make more money yourself. Spend less time drinking, smoking and socializing and more time working." Holy fuck does this woman think that money is infinite? If we are all millionaires, then we are all equally wealthy. A millionaire is only relevant if there are people who [I]aren't[/I] millionaires to exploit. Cool, I broke automerge...take that gayry

[QUOTE=Legolas;37554637]I remember reading somewhere on Reddit that apparently she inherited all of her riches :v:[/QUOTE] Or explained for the stupid people out there: She doesn't know jackshit about earning money, and thinks it's [I]SOOO[/I] easy.

Normally I wouldn't read through the comics in an article like this, but I'm glad I did. [quote]I am so thankful to the LA Times for not publishing her photo as a scratch-and-sniff.[/quote]

[QUOTE]"Africans want to work, and its workers are willing to work for less than $2 per day. Such statistics make me worry for this country's future."[/quote] Do what America does. Move the jobs to Africa then.

wow its like she's trying her hardest to make people hate her

[QUOTE=Los Angeles Times]Rinehart knows what it means to pull yourself up by the bootstraps.

These sentences completely contradict each other. She looks like a fat bitch too. I enjoy the article's table scrap analogy; looks like Gina doesn't even leave any scraps from the table. Oh also, here's an interesting photo. I'd place it next to a photo of a chinsee sweatshop worker, but I feel like that wouldn't be very appropriate.

That disgusting cunt doesnt look like shes ever seen a hard days work in her life

You'd think the world's richest woman could afford to make herself attractive. I guess not.

[QUOTE=Amiga OS;37554776]I'm interested to know the correlation between her waists rate of growth and that of her bank account.[/QUOTE] It's probably a direct relationship. She literally embodies the quote "Let them eat cake."

It's nice to know she makes more money in a day than my entire known family combined makes in a year by sitting on her ass. Clearly this woman is more worthy than myself and I don't deserve money or education.

Wow, I didn't know pinatas had fat saggy boobs... Nevermind; she's as tempting to crack open as any overly-rich hoarder. The fuck does that pinata DO with all those Aussie dollars anyway; fucking INVESTMENTS?

Fucking clueless heiress. How about you go work in the mines and then complain. [editline]5th September 2012[/editline] She sits on her fat ass and makes billions while people work themselves to death for fuck all.

She [B][I]inherits[/I][/B] a fortune and tells everyone else to work harder. Fuck logic.

[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;37554730]She's right about working hard will give you a better chance at being a millionaire but my god I have never seen it said in such a dickish way before in my life. [/QUOTE] But the problem is that in order to make a million, someone else needs to fail at making a million. If everyone who worked hard became a millionaire then a million dollars wouldn't be worth shit, it would be bread money.

[QUOTE=Taepodong-2;37554766]You'd think the world's richest woman could afford to make herself attractive. I guess not.[/QUOTE] She probably had a personal trainer, but then ate them when they didn't work hard enough to make her thin.

I'd condemn that fat bitch to work in mines while she is restrained to chain.
