Pay And Pay

a lot of buzz has been going on lately. with the new minister pay riSE. also another issue on the GST riSE. the GST rise is to help boost the economy. or something like that. but at the same time, they're increasing the minister's pay??? i mean, i never agreed on the bench-marking process with the private sector anyway. it doesnt make sense, nor is it fair. their salaries are based on what other people earn?? does that mean my dad should get a pay rise too, since other engineers earn more than him? with the ministers earning 2-3 million a year, we have to earn 1 million a year to be in the middle-income group? lol.
