I mentor a small business, typical of a many in nz. They provide a needed service but labour intensive. some 40% of the costs are people, on low rates, Would need a 15% price rise to cover .....yeah right ...the punters packed a sad when prices went up 4% a while ago. Competition - all would be in same boat
Never mind ....just a rave and probably reflects the state of this once proud nation eh
