housing: sufficient for a single parent
A single parent could share a 1 bedroom apartment with another single parent. That's ok?
I believe that all healthcare should be covered
No country covers all healthcare.
The tactic you're performing here is called "Sea lioning" and it's a bad-faith tactic; but I'll answer the questions just in case you didn't know what I meant by what I said.
You didn't answer the questions at all. Saying "it needs to be sufficient" is not an answer. And calling it "sealioning" doesn't change that.
- PlunderBunny 3y agoThe living wage movement has organisations that attempt to define a living wage. See, for example, https://www.livingwage.org.nz/about https://www.livingwage.org.nz/about in my own country. They pressure companies into adopting a living wage, and have been reasonably successful. You seem to be arguing that because things can't be perfect or perfectly defined, that the entire idea is invalid.
- refurb 3y agoYour link provides zero details. And I'm not arguing it's not perfectly defined, but how can you ask for something if you can't describe what it is?
- PlunderBunny 3y agoOn the page I linked to: 'In the same year independent research by the Family Centre Social Policy Research Unit established the first Living Wage rate for New Zealand, $18.40 per hour." That quote contains a link to the Family Centre (https://familycentre.org.nz https://familycentre.org.nz) which - if you look down that page a bit - contains the most recent report that defines what a living wage is, how it is determined, and how and when it is reviewed. It describes very clearly what a living wage is. What is your point exactly?
