.... where are the figures??? Employment in what industries? Hotels & Tourism?
Reasonably paid skilled jobs are lost to low paid unskilled jobs? Is that a good thing??? Yet more "dumbing" of our once strong skilled workforce.
Whom is this good for? Certainly NOT for those who are filling these jobs. Yes, the good of all this may be increased employment, but at LOWER wages. Who benifits.........?
