Everything in Australia is more expensive than it should be, unfortunately. That's what we get for being the geographical arse end of the world.

- Symbiote 9y agoIt's also (AIUI) that Australian workers are paid a reasonably fair wage, even if they're moving packages in a warehouse, delivering parcels or floor staff in a shop. Minimum wage in Australia is double that in the USA. Here in Denmark, the minimum wage is even higher (2.5 times USA plus pension) and the vacuum more expensive than in Australia.
- verelo 9y agoI don't think that would even come close to explaining this difference. But as an Australian, yeah it's a thing.
