- Description
A poverty-stricken family of three learns that the minimum wage will be raised by 25 cents per hour. Saving the extra ten dollars a week will be enough for them to afford a one-way ticket to Australia, where wages are higher.
In February 2013 the minimum wage was raised by 25 cents per hour. The raise was not enough to counter the cost of living rises. Increasingly, the temptation to leave for Australia to earn a living wage beckoned.
