    Shows how utterly vile people become when they have too much money.She has an $18 billion fortune yet feels the need to say workers should starve for their labour.
    What a nasty fat bitch she really is.

    Instead of trying to make a case about competing with slave labour wages, how about making a case to abolish slave labour wages.In this day and age nobody should be on such low pay, no matter what country they work in.

    Damn people stopping her from getting richer by asking for enough money to live. How rude.

    so her fast track to success was to get married to and knocked up by a 57 year old when she was almost half his age.

    she sure worked hard for her success.

    She didn't marry the money, she inherited the money.

    "Hancock Prospecting is an Australian mineral exploration and extraction privately owned company that holds the rights to some of the largest land leases in the Pilbara region of Western Australia, containing the world's largest iron ore deposit. Established in 1955, the company is chaired by Gina Rinehart, estimated to be the wealthiest person in Australia, and the daughter of the company's founder, the late Lang Hancock."

    Here's an idea - let her charge her workers $2 a day, and see if they hang around or move to a competitor. Then see how it effects her profits.

    Well most likely if they let her do that it would just be like in Dubai. Importing all the workers, holding their passports so they can't leave, and housing them in cinder block housing. Also assuming that this location is not the middle of nowhere and they can flock to another job.

    This was doing the rounds on reddit a few days back.

    She is a fucking idiot with the morals of sociopath. Not much else to it, really, is there?

    Of course, what she could do is set up a company in the countries where the wages are so low, incorporated under their local (probably barely existing) employment laws, then outsource to those companies from her Australian parent company. But then she is probably too much of a fucking idiot to think of that or was too busy eating pies or something.

    Thanks for expressing interest in my signature!

    Might not work in Australia who are strict on who they let in.

    She isn't a nice person.

    She can't legally do that in Australia, where the majority of her mines are.

    You would denigrate a Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire? :o

    Actually this guy seems pretty decent.

    She genuinely doesn't understand what AUD2 will buy you.

    I put her in the 'so rich, money is meaningless' camp.

    And the 'utter cunt' camp.

    LB, you really are a massive geek.

    It's people like this that I would actually smile upon hearing news of their death.

    As far back as I can remember I always wanted to be a ninja.

    Presumably her companies would be more competitive if the upper management didn't get paid? I wonder if this crossed her mind at all? Obviously there are a lot less of them than the proles, but every little bit helps, right?
