Tripling the cost of running a tech company in Australia is effectively outlawing startups.

  If you can't afford to pay people to work for you, you do not have a viable business.

  That’s right, we should continue to exploit workers instead because of vague contract terms that they “must work extra hours when required”. Workers should remember that the business is more important than their non contracted time. The capitalism dream right?

  the document starts with framing it applies to "non small business", so an early start up can still function with a small team of motivated volunteers outside hours, but beyond a certain size i agree with the sibling comments: if a late startup still relies on that to survive/grow, then its business model isn't working.
