Gina Rinehart is so Rich and so Fat She wants Australia for Lunch – Princess of Woop Woop - worth $30 Billion

Gina Rinehart - Princess of Woop Woop in Oz


Once again it is those lazy poor people living off the system who make life so miserable for the very RICH.  Princess of Woop Woop Land in Australia Gina Rinehart thinks $15.96 minimum wage Austalian, $1.029 to $1.00 American rate, is a burden for her company to pay for a working man to support his family for his first 38 hours of labor. 

She is jealous that Americans only get $7.25 minimum wage in the United States and wants a similar deal for workers in Oz.

What a fucking greedy pig! Go buy a bottle of shampoo darling and a bar of soap too I think while you are at it as well.

Oh dear.  Where is the catsup mate? I want to eat Australia for lunch! Same as the Koch Brothers are already munching on America’s assets.

Australian mining tycoon Gina Rinehart, the richest woman in the world (yes, richer even than Christy Walton) must think she’s some kind of Dagny Taggart OR SOMETHING. Rinehart penned an offensive editorial column in a mining industry magazine that’s being widely condemned in Australia. Considering that she owns much of the media there, and undoubtedly many a politician, too, that seems significant.
Rinehart’s fortune is estimated to be in the range of $30 billion and apparently the mining heiress thinks those drunken shrimp-on-the-barbie poors are just jealous of people like her and her rich friends. During a month when Rinehart is actively engaged in petitioning the government to lower the minimum wage and slash taxes on the wealthy, her timing couldn’t be worse.
Setting aside the fact that it’s patently ridiculous that a single family could be allowed to make that kind of money by mining a natural (and therefore national) resource like iron ore out of the ground, Rinehart inherited her fucking money in the first place (Just like Francisco d’Anconia inherited his copper mines in Atlas Shrugged, eh? And remind me again how Dagny Taggart came to be running Taggart Transcontinental? Ah, yes, through an accident of birth!) Via Raw Story:
“There is no monopoly on becoming a millionaire. If you’re jealous of those with more money, don’t just sit there and complain. Do something to make more money yourself — spend less time drinking or smoking and socialising, and more time working. Become one of those people who work hard, invest and build, and at the same time create employment and opportunities for others”
Rinehart blamed what she described as “socialist”, anti-business policies for the plight of Australia’s poor, urging the government to lower the minimum wage, as well as taxes, unless it wanted to end up like Greece.
