Last Monday, it was Helsinki. This Monday, it will be Boca Raton.
OK, so the latest summit meeting between the Boca Raton City Council and the Greater Boca Raton Beach and Park District isn't Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin. On a local level, however, the relationship between the two agencies recently has been as testy at times as that between the United States and Russia.
When I started this blog more than four years ago, the city and district were trying to craft a master agreement for all parks. Though they struck a deal on beach renourishment, the parks agreement remains unfinished.
Similarly, the city and district did agree on a plan to buy the former Ocean Breeze golf course. The plan for renovating it as a replacement for Boca Raton's western course, however, is not final.
An Ocean Breeze update is on Monday's full agenda. Board Chairman Bob Rollins said the district does have an estimate of the cost to remove asbestos from the structures to be demolished—the closed hotel and the old clubhouse.
Rollins had hoped to have by Monday's meeting an estimate of the full renovation cost. That won't happen.
"I've heard as high as $14 million and as low as $10 million or $12 million," Rollins said.
The city underwrote bonds for the $24 million land purchase, but board members have said the district might ask the council for direct payments toward the course work. District board member Steve Engel said that topic "might be up for discussion," but the district is "still in the process of finalizing" the amount and the financing.
Mayor Scott Singer said any such ask "would depend on the request, and the context of how much they'd seek." Singer recalled correctly that the district "stated that they believed they could purchase and refurbish the course without increasing" the tax rate. The district board just approved the same rate for the 2018-2019 budget year.
Another item will be an assessment of city and district recreation needs. Rollins said the evaluation might cost $200,000, which the agencies could split. The influx of young families that has caused school crowding also has increased demand for park and recreation space.
A big-ticket item up for discussion Monday is the master plan for Gumbo Limbo Nature Center. The district board recently approved money for a new boardwalk and tower. The plan itself could cost $200,000. A full renovation could cost $20 million or more.
Based on my conversations with the city and the district, however, the potentially most contentious item will be a discussion of non-resident park fees. Everyone agrees that the system is a confusing snarl.
Example: Boca Raton residents make up roughly 80 percent of beach and park district residents. The district includes the city and areas west to Florida's Turnpike. City residents can buy permits for access to all three beachfront parks, but district residents can get a permit only for Red Reef Park because the district pays some of the expenses. The city requires proof of residency for a permit.
District board Steve Engel said, "We have a jumble of fees for different facilities that need to be given a logical foundation, so that parks with similar facilities charge similar fees." There can be different fees for the same services. He would prefer that "residents absorb a lighter load, since they are already paying taxes to the district, the city and the county for these facilities."
Before numbers, though, the council and district ideally would agree on the definition of "resident." Rollins said the district "would like to redefine it."
That could mean granting resident status to students who attend school within the city or district but whose parents live outside both boundaries. Many West Boca and Deerfield Beach residents play in Boca Raton's youth baseball program. What about someone who owns a business in the city but lives elsewhere?
It does not appear that fee schedules matter much to the city's or district's budget. Rollins said he would like to lower the fees for kids in competitive sports program. Parents first paid $25 per child, but that has risen to $65 per child and per sport. Dropping the price, Rollins said, would increase access and thus diversity. "It's good to get as many cultures and religions together as possible."
Meeting goals
Given that stuffed agenda, what would the participants consider a successful meeting?
In an email, district board member Craig Ehrnst said, "It's time for elected officials to collectively prioritize commitments and decide how to best implement them. Different elected groups have different priorities. We all need to get on the same. A stronger resident focus on actual deliverables (done timely) will be helpful."
City Councilwoman Andrea O'Rourke wants "details and costs of pertinent issues. Mayor Singer said, "I hope the meeting will set the stage for more productive meetings in the next few months. Success would be a firm plan to address these issues in timely joint meetings and a framework for decisions in the next few months."
Councilwoman Monica Mayotte said she holed up for part of last week trying to understand this mysterious relationship. She wants the master agreement finalized and to hear what projects have priority.
"Most of all," Mayotte added, "whatever past animosities existed between the two bodies must be worked out. I believe we all want what's best for the city and district residents. So, let's move forward, talk through all of our issues so we can work collaboratively to make progress on projects, ensure a smooth budgeting process and provide the best parks and recreational services for everyone."
Haynie update
With a status hearing in the case set for next Thursday, the Palm Beach County State Attorney's Office has amended five of the seven charges against former Boca Raton Mayor Susan Haynie.
The filing came in response to Haynie's motion to dismiss the charges. Prosecutors updated the wording in two felony charges to "corrupt intent," in line with current public corruption laws.
Regarding the three misdemeanors, Haynie had argued that they arose from county ethics rules and thus would be civil violations, not criminal. Prosecutors reply that Haynie's violations were "willful" and thus chargeable.
The notable portion of the document concerns the two other felony charges, one for official misconduct and one for perjury. Haynie had argued that prosecutors had failed to detail the misconduct offense and failed to specify what untruthful statement Haynie made.
On these points, prosecutors essentially blew off the former mayor. "Such notice," they wrote of the misconduct charge, "is no necessary since (Haynie) is the one who committed these crimes and actually possesses the most knowledge of her multiple criminal acts."
Regarding the perjury charge, prosecutors referred back to the probable cause affidavit that noted Haynie's interview with an investigator for the Commission on Ethics. "Admittedly, (Haynie's) lies to the investigator while under oath were many; however, she is well informed of the ones in which (sic) she is being prosecuted." There's some prosecutorial snark.
Bruce Zimet, Haynie's attorney, said he would file a new motion to dismiss before the hearing next Thursday. Palm Beach County Circuit Judge Glenn Kelley might set a trial date next week. Zimet said no discussions of a plea deal are taking place, "and I do not anticipate any."
Zimet also said, "We intend to raise the question" of whether the charges against Haynie "were an attempt at a political takedown" on behalf of former City Councilman Robert Weinroth. He left his reelection bid in January to challenge Haynie for county commission. Before the controversy over her relationship with James and Marta Batmasian, Haynie had seemed on track to succeed Steven Abrams on the commission in a district that Republicans have represented since it was drawn.
Weinroth, a Democrat, now is in a strong position to win. He is well-funded, and the only Republican in the race has very little name recognition
Of Zimet's comment, Weinroth said, "I don't think it's worthy of a response.
Another adult-living project?
On Monday's Boca Raton Community Redevelopment Agency meeting is another adult living project. Even as single-family neighborhoods in the city get younger, bringing more students, the city gets more applications for these high-end, adult-only projects.
This one would be on Dixie Highway just south of Mizner Boulevard. The 10-story facility would replace a one-story medical arts building on roughly half an acre of land. It would have 129 beds, divided between independent living, assisted living and memory care.
The applicant states that the project "will be redefining retirement living, and redefining how health care is experienced, delivered and organized. . .This brings an unparalleled experience and a redefined quality of lifestyle." Similar pitches have accompanied other adult living projects.
City planners recommend approval, as did the community appearance board and the planning and zoning board. The latter had concerns about adequate staffing, so the developers raised the level and thus adjusted the number of parking spaces. The design meets downtown standards under Ordinance 4035.
City Manager Leif Ahnell, however, notes again that such projects generate 15 times more fire-rescue calls than standard multi-family complexes. Fire-rescue costs are a major concern in projected city budgets. You wonder if city council members will raise the same concern that they have about students. Staff recommended denial of a similar project in the northwest part of the city, but the council approved it anyway.
Midtown on the agenda
This is a reminder that the two Midtown items on tonight's Boca Raton Planning and Zoning Board agenda don't involve specific rules for potential residential development. They are changes the city must make to allow any redevelopment at all.
Crocker Partners, Midtown's primary landowner, is suing the city over what the company says is its refusal to approve development rules. The city designated Midtown for Planned Mobility Development nearly a decade ago.
At Monday's workshop meeting, the city council will hear about what the public would like to see at Midtown. The input, however, probably is useless. After the council in January indefinitely delayed a decision, two landowners began moving ahead with their own plans. The vision of redevelopment across the roughly 300 acres—with the owners paying for infrastructure—likely is dead.

Interspersed materials have tows of carbon and thermoplastic filaments placed as separate layers within the NCF (Fig. 16). This overcomes the problem of uneven fiber distribution and facilitates closer control of the quality of the layers. This method also allows the fiber lay-up to be tailored for optimized handling, because the thermoplastic filaments completely disperse during processing; thus, their initial orientation is unimportant.
4%, depending on the choice of description. This provides a design strain reserve factor of 3, based on a plain laminate. 3 Further Details of Carbon and Graphite Fibers These are made by carbonizing precursor fibers of PAN (polyacrylonitrile) or pitch. As shown in the diagram, the precursor fiber is heated and carbonized while under tension and is surface treated before being wound onto a spool prior to weaving. Further details are given in Figs. 8. (See Ref. 8 shows the important effect of heat treatment.
These pre-oxidized fibers are better able to withstand carbonization/graphitization temperatures and have improved carbon chain orientation. To produce the intermediate strength fiber, the pre-oxidized fiber is then carbonized in a furnace at temperatures greater than 1200°C (2192°F) for one or two minutes. Graphitization takes place at 2000–3000°C (3632–5432°F) for one to two minutes and produces high-strength, high-modulus fibers. The furnace temperatures remove hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen, leaving oriented carbon chains.

Repeating Myself 30 Years Later
Looking back, it's ironic the two big stories in the news the week of January 10, 2020 were the death of the Hon. John Crosbie, who was Fisheries Minister at the time of the moratorium in 1992 and now 28 years later we are told the cod stocks in the Gulf are in danger of extinction. What have we learned in 28 years? I think we all know the answer to that one, but for some reason the Department of Fisheries and Oceans and the managers of our oceans do not seem to get it.

In an April 2020 press release, Karen Dwyer, cod research Scientist, Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) stated that "survey indices suggest that recently observed stock growth (C2012-2016) may have stalled ecosystems conditions, indicating limited productivity and reduced food availability limiting the growth of cod." Dwyer said on CBC's The Broadcast, that cod have turned to cannibalism (eating their own) because of a lack of food, mainly capelin. When asked by host Jane Adey ...

Should There be a Fishery in Newfoundland and Labrador This Year?
The fishery is part of the food chain, the very essence of life. We have a lot of people in this world who are starving to death and any interruptions in the food chain will only make things worse. Food gets scarce, prices skyrocket and the poor people will be the ones to suffer. There is a lot of fear in this province and you hear it every day on radio and TV, all in an effort to get people to stay home. Approximately 90 per cent of food in Newfoundland and Labrador comes from outside ...

Crisis in Our Ocean 25 Years After the Moratorium
In 1992, there was a moratorium called on what was one of the greatest cod stocks of the world, the Northern cod of Newfoundland and Labrador — it was supposed to be for a couple of years. Fast forward to 2017, 25 years later, we are facing the same things again. What has happened? After the cod moratorium, many people called for an inquiry as to what happened but alas no government would take it on. For a few years after the moratorium, our coastal communities were kept alive with ...

Newfoundland and Labrador Needs to Get Back to Basics
I haven't written much about the fishery lately because not many people seemed concerned about it or making their voices known and the previous government had the fishing industry on the back burner. I recently read an article in The Telegram by Father Brophy about the proposed sale of Quinsea to a company in Denmark, Royal Greenland and listened to Gus Etchegary, Dr. Phil Earle, Leo Seamour, John Gillette and David Boyd. I thought to myself, we have a change of government in Ottawa and a ...

The Northeastern Huskies and Hofstra Pride will square off at Norfolk Scope Arena this Tuesday night in the Championship of the CAA Men's Conference Tournament.
The 6-seed Northeastern Huskies reached their 2nd consecutive CAA Men's Championship game after defeating the 7-seed Elon Phoenix, 68-60, last night. Northeastern was outstanding offensively and had little trouble securing the victory after going into halftime with a 37-21 lead. Northeastern shot 46.0% from the field and 52.0% from beyond the arc in the victory. Leading the way for the Huskies was Jordan Roland who had 21 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists, and a block.
On the season, Northeastern is averaging 71.4 ppg on 47.5% shooting from the field. The Huskies are averaging 8.1 three-pointers per game on 36.9% shooting from beyond the arc. Offensively, Northeastern has been led by Jordan Roland (22.2 ppg, 3.4 rpg, 1.8 apg, 1.6 spg), Tyson Walker (10.6 ppg, 2.1 rpg, 3.4 apg, 1.8 spg), Bolden Brace (10.5 ppg, 6.6 rpg, 2.2 apg, 1.2 spg), and Maxime Boursiquot (8.8 ppg, 4.9 rpg, 1.2 apg, 1.7 spg).
Defensively, Northeastern is holding their opponents to an average of 66.3 ppg on 45.6% shooting from the field. The Huskies have a rebound margin of 1.2 and a turnover margin of 1.2.
The top-seed Hofstra Pride had little issue getting back to the CAA Men's Championship after defeating the 3-seed, Delaware Blue Hens, 75-61, last night. Hofstra was outstanding from beyond the arc against the Blue Hens and pulled away in the 2nd half after a 11-0 run gave the Pride a 58-37 lead with 9:33 left in regulation. Hofstra shot an incredible 52.2% (12-23) from beyond the arc and outrebounded Delaware by a 40-32 margin in the victory. Leading the way for the Pride was Eli Pemberton who had 24 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist, and 2 steals.
On the season, Hofstra is averaging 76.5 ppg on 45.1% shooting from the field. The Pride are averaging 8.2 three-pointers per game on 37.4% shooting from beyond the arc. Offensively, Hofstra has been led by Desure Buie (18.1 ppg, 3.6 rpg, 5.9 apg, 2.0 spg), Eli Pemberton (17.6 ppg, 5.5 rpg, 1.9 apg, 1.3 spg), Jalen Ray (11.8 ppg, 2.7 rpg, 1.9 apg, 1.3 spg), and Isaac Kante (11.4 ppg, 7.5 rpg).
Defensively, Hofstra is allowing their opponents to average 68.6 ppg on 44.5% shooting from the field. The Pride have a rebound margin of 0.7 and a turnover margin of 2.5.
The Huskies are 4-3 ATS in their last 7 games and 14-18 ATS on the season. The Pride are 11-1 ATS in their last 11 games and 24-8 ATS on the season.
Northeastern comes into this match-up ranked 18th in FG%, 30th in 3P-FG%, and 3rd in FT%.
Hofstra comes into this game led by their offense that ranks 39th in scoring offense, 101st in FG%, 20th in 3P-FG%, and 10th in FT%.
We have a re-match of last year's CAA Championship game in which Hofstra will be looking for revenge after the Huskies defeated the Pride by an 82-74 margin to punch their NCAA ticket. Northeastern is much better team than their 6-seed reflects this season and have looked strong in both their match-ups against Towson & Elon. Hofstra is an outstanding team who got the better of Northeastern in both match-up this season, however, both games were competitive as Hofstra won by a 74-72 margin on the road and 75-71 margin at home. Northeastern was able to upset Hofstra last season in this game and as I think the Huskies will once again find success on the offensive end with their quality shooting, I think Northeastern makes it back-to-back trips to the NCAA Tournament. Good Luck!
Brett's Pick Northeastern Huskies +1

This week we were given pictures and had to write on that basis. I was given this:
And it brought me thoughts on my own gems – my daughters.
Making an imprint of me here before I turn into ashes….
This week we were given pictures and had to write on that basis. I was given this:
And it brought me thoughts on my own gems – my daughters.
Every moment we spent
painted a new page in my blank page
every fragrance you sprayed
blossomed in my page
every walk you took me to
became another colorful page
every second of my life
became precious
every inch in me
turned on with you
my skin became the gateway for you
my body became your temple
you resided in me
purifying my soul
your infectious smile
shoot a smile in me
your eyes
brightened my eyes
I knew that love was magical.
walking miles and miles with you
was never tiring
loving you was never boring
as every day, you brought in fun and excitement
being with you anywhere is better than
being alone with someoneelse
I rejoiced my life with you
in your arms today and beyond tomorrow forever.
I sat whimsically looking at my kids
I wonder from where to start
and where to stop
the mess around me
had turned my thoughts bushy and wild
I wondered was it just me?
or every other mom in the world like me
lost in wondering thought
feel like solitude is a bliss at times
I look at them, at times lost in my thoughts half way
as they keep doing their mischiefs
beguiling me and my lost mind
was I mad? or really lost the grip of my anger?
the world around me was moving faster
and I sat there idle watching it like a clown
one goes this way, while the other goes another way round
as I walk towards my daily chores
which keeps building up like a mountain overnight
the mom is me was lost in thoughts
when the little ones were gaining the momentum
and gained the control of my home
The soon I decided to ignore
the easier it was for me to relax
even though the world was upside down around me
Yet their smiles made me feel that the world was right around me.
You are born to her
the cradle in her human form
nurtures you and caress you
you kick her, touch her and feel her
you reward her with sleepless nights forever
yet she is the one who always cares for you
you are born giving her the pain that is the greatest
yet you form the courage in her to suffer it
your little face delights her and shoots up a smile
even with teary eyes , you can make her smile
even if you agree or disagree, she will stand for you
even if you fight with her, she is the only one who cannot stop being with you
the love that began even before she sighted you
the love that never judges your color or physical appearance
the love that stands universally
and stays forever
is the Mother's love.
Treasure it forever, as you cannot gain another Mother.
Her little naughty eyes were closed
she walked holding something in her hand
All I could do was smile, at her innocense
holding the mobile in her hands, she walked past me
all she thought was that closing her eyes would hide all her naughtiness
little did she knew that it was just she, who was blindfold
all other's eyes were open
she smiled as she walked by
We too smiled and instead of scolding her
in playing with the mobile, all we did was laugh out loudly
her chastity hid all her mistakes and gifted a smile on our grumpy faces
It was quite surprising at how she could melt our stubborn hearts
in just a smile
a smile that is worth beyond millions
All I wished was that she stayed as such with lots of impeccability and blessings.

Disgraceful cut in wages for more than a million low-wage workers in Australia
In case you thought that neo-liberalism had gone and buried its head in shame after all the disasters that it has wrought after several decades of privatisation, outsourcing, pernicious welfare changes, fiscal austerity, out of control banksters, dramatic increases in income and wealth inequality, then Australia's most recent effort will remind that it is still alive and well and morphing into something more nasty than we have previously seen (in this country). On Thursday (February 23, 2017), the Fair Work Commission, which is the judicial body empowered by the Federal Government to set minimum wages and conditions in all sectors (so-called 'awards') determined that the lowest-paid workers in Australia – more than a million of them (in an employed Labour Force of just over 12 million) – were getting too higher wages and incomes. Accordingly, they decided to cut wages – not just the real equivalent but the actual wage rates that these workers earn. The judges (who I guess do not work as a matter of course on Sunday) have fallen prey of this 24/7 greed for more profits and determined that Sunday work no longer justifies the existing penalty rates. Their decision to savagely cut them just means the bosses pocket more profits and workers move closer or into poverty with rising bankrupcties, mortgage and credit card defaults and the rest of it. The decision is a disaster for the lowest-paid (hospitality, retail and cafe) workers in this country and it will feed through to other sectors before long. The Federal government could easily legislate to stop the cuts. It won't. The trade unions could rebel. They won't. So it is really left to us – the citizens to do everything we can including boycotts of firms who exploit the decision to proctect the wages of the poor.
Please read my previous blogs in the topic for more background:
1. Penalty wage rates are still justified for non-standard hours work.
2. No case made to cut penalty rates.
I was also quoted in the press following this decision – for example, Penalty rates won't reduce prices for consumers: employers.
On Thursday, I also noted in the blog – Australia's wage outcomes – a race to the bottom and nowhere – that wages growth in Australia was now at record lows and that real wages growth has stalled completely, despite on-going productivity growth.
Meaning: profits as a share of national income have grown substantially in this neo-liberal period at the expense of workers.
I have also shown that Australia is becoming a part-time employment nation with rising underemployment and a collapse in full-time work. See blogs under the Labour Force category on the right.
But that isn't good enough is it.
Not content to hold all workers down to low rates of wages growth, the business sector (top-end-of-town) has waged a long campaign to get rid of penalty rates – which are bonuses on top of the normal wage rate to compensate workers for working in non-standard hours (like night shifts, weekends and public holidays).
While I usually do some work on Sundays, I also treat it as a day for other things – recreation, playing sport, catching up on maintenance of housing, bikes, shopping etc. I go to the football and play in my band some Sundays.
The vast majority of people do the same sorts of things because they know Sunday is a special day – a non-work day.
Weekends and public holidays, in general, mean that people work on their houses/gardens, they walk in family groups around the beach and engage in a plethora of community and sporting events – that tells you something.
It tells you that public holidays and weekends are special and quite different to the standard 9 to 5 (8 to 4) working week from Monday to Friday.
But the employer groups have been trying to say that the world has changed and that there is nothing special about weekends or public holidays.
They run the line that work is now 24/7 and there is nothing significant about people giving up all these social and other personal activities to work.
These employer groups have consistently tried to get penalty wage rates cut so that their members can more fully exploit their workforces.
In many cases, the workers who earn penalty rates are in the lowest pay sectors such as accommodation, hospitality, food, and retail. There is pure greed involved in their on-going demands but also gross inconsistency. Many business groups repeatedly mount challenges to the penalty rates system that Australia has in place to protect workers' rights. But then when their own 'conditions' are threatened by deregulation, they argue that the world will end. Hypocrisy has no bounds when dealing with these characters.
For many years now, I have written expert testimony and research reports on a commissioned basis for several trade unions in their defense of the penalty rate system and minimum wages in general. These cases are heard in Australia's unique wage tribunal system and determined by a judicial body under usual rules of evidence and cross examination.
The tribunal (currently called Fair Work Commission) sets minimum award conditions that are legally binding on employers across an array of occupations and sectors. Fair Work Australia also sets the minimum wage.
I wrote briefly about that experience in this blog – No joy for Australia's low paid workers.
The pressure from the employers to abandon the penalty rate system has been relentless over many years and up until now they have been largely unsuccessful in their endeavours because their argument always denies the obvious (the specialness of public holidays) and rely on the flawed reasoning that mainstream microeconomic textbooks inflict on students in our universities, which conclude (erroneously) that cutting wages increases employment.
Last Thursday, the Fair Work Commission morphed into a neo-liberal support group and finally gave the employer groups their wish.
In three sectors – retail trade, hospitality and fast food – the FWC handed down its – Penalty rates decision.
For background material from the FWC (submissions etc), please see Penalty Rates Case.
The FWC also published a – Summary – of its decision.
The 'awards' that are affected by the outcome are:
– Fast Food Industry Award 2010 (the Fast Food Award)
– General Retail Industry Award 2010 (the Retail Award)
– Hospitality Industry (General) Award 2010 (the Hospitality Award)
– Pharmacy Industry Award 2010 (the Pharmacy Award)
– Registered and Licensed Clubs Award 2010 (the Clubs Award)
– Restaurant Industry Award 2010 (the Restaurant Award)
So wages and condition minimums that tend to affect the lowest-paid workers.
The FWC cut the penalty rates for Sunday work and Public Holidays in various ways and you can read up the detail if you are interested.
For example, for a workers in retail they have cut the Sunday rate from 200 per cent to 150 per cent (for full-time or part-time workers).
Similar cuts are proposed for the other awards noted above.
The FWC claimed variously that:
1. " the extent of the disutility is much less than in times past" for Sunday work.
2. "Any potential positive employment effects from a reduction in penalty rates are likely to be reduced due to substitution and other effects" – in other words, the overall employment effects are likely to be minimal.
3. "A substantial proportion of award-reliant employees covered by these modern awards are low paid and the reductions in Sunday penalty rates we have determined are likely to reduce the earnings of those employees who currently work on Sundays … most existing employees would probably face reduced earnings as it is improbable that, as a group, existing workers' hours on Sundays would rise sufficiently to offset the income effects of penalty rate reductions" – in other words, work harder for less hourly pay if you can find it to make up lost income but don't expect to be able to find the extra work.
4. "Many of these employees earn just enough to cover weekly living expenses, saving money is difficult and unexpected expenses produce considerable financial distress. The immediate implementation of the variations to Sunday penalty rates would inevitably cause some hardship to the employees affected, particularly those who work on Sundays. The Full Bench concluded that appropriate transitional arrangements are necessary to mitigate the hardship caused to employees who work on Sunday" – in other words, many workers will default on existing liabilities (house mortgages, credit cards) and be deprived of other essentials.
5. It also noted that there is a growing number of employers who are already cheating the system and exploiting their workers illegally by paying less than legal wages. The FWC decision just means these bastards can go on doing the same thing – because now wages have been cut.
The decision is a disaster for the lowest-paid (hospitality, retail and cafe) workers in this country, which will feed through to other sectors (for example, nursing) before long.
It consolidates what has been going on for a long-time under the misnomer of 'structural reform'. The employers claim that the decision will increase hours of work, increase jobs growth, reduce prices, increase the quality of service. They don't mention profits.
The reality of the situation is that there is no reform element about the decision – where we use that term to imply making everyone better off after adjustment costs are borne.
The employers are only pursuing an even greater share of national income – rent-seeking – than they already enjoy. They don't want to 'do things better' – they just want more profit.
The first point is that total sales in an economy are determined by total spending, which is intrinsically related to total incomes.
Low-income groups spend more per dollar received (most, if not all of it) than high-income groups. Are transfer of income from poor to rich will reduce overall spending for sure.
The estimates are that more than a million workers will be negatively impacted by this decision. That is a significant amount of lost income (some estimates are saying average workers will lose $A6,000 per year) and a lot of lost spending.
Even if more services become offered on Sundays (and I don't expect there to be) and total spending somehow remains the same, the overall macroeconomic constraint will just mean that there will less purchases on other days of the week.
The FWC hasn't a clue on these distributional impacts across the week.
The employers claim that if their costs fall they will push the benefits out to all – sound familiar? The old Maggie Thatcher/Ronald Reagan Trickle-Down! That ruse proved a failure then.
It will remain so.
Much has been made by the employers that we 'don't go to church anymore' and so Sunday's have lost their original meaning.
We might have stopped being churchgoers, but, ss noted above, we do a range of other activities on Sundays including family, shopping, homemaintenance, grooming ourselves and family, sport, rest and other things that all preclude working.
These are mainstream activities that consume our time on a and are essential for our on-going health and balance through the rest of the week.
Further, there is no evidence that employment is held back in the sectors targetted as a result of the higher Sunday and Saturday (and public holiday) rates.
As I have shown before, the data shows that the Cafe and Restaurant and hospitality sectors have higher growth rates of new enterprises than the rest of industry and higher employment growth.
Retail lags behind in employment growth but that has been the result of a major shift in preferences and the slowdown in the overall economy as a result of fiscal austerity.
In past work, I have examined profitability, business growth, and a range of other indicators and have never found any evidence to support the case for scrapping penalty rates.
The FWC decision also intensifies the class division and the income inequality in our society. The well-heeled will continue to enjoy leisure on Sundays and be waited on and serviced by an increasingly impoverished lower class of working poor as a result of the decision.
Most of the workers who receive penalty rates are low paid and rely on the extra rates to stay above the poverty line.
Summary points against the decision
1. While perceptions of standard and non-standard working hours have evolved, the overwhelming majority of people still work standard working weeks and require weekends to rest, socialise, play and worship.
2. Studies show that extending weekend work compromises these non-work activities and reduces quality of life.
3. Penalty rates ensure that employers can attract staff in non-standard hours under terms that society considers to be reasonable given the required sacrifices involved. There has been no abandonment of long-held cultural and social arrangements with respect to the standard and non-standard work division.
4. The trend to two-income families as mortgage debt has risen to record levels has forced families to compromise some of their traditional leisure time to make ends meet. While casual work provides flexibility for some workers, working non-standard hours in precarious, low-paid and disagreeable working environments becomes a necessity for many given the deficient overall jobs growth. Penalty rates help protect living standards of these low-paid workers.
In other work I have done (with Scott Baum) – The CofFEE Employment Vulnerability Index V2.0 – we identified suburbs in Australia that have not been previously considered to be highly disadvantaged, but which may become so as a result of declining labour market conditions.
We termed these the emerging disadvantage job loss localities.
These are the mortgage belt suburbs that have grown on the periphery of our major cities. The neo-liberal debt binge saw household debt in these areas rise to record levels and families buying into the property boom running very precarious home economies.
Typically the young families are way out of the margin of the cities because land and housing was cheaper there. The husband works in sectors that are highly sensitive to the economic cycle (for example, construction) and the wife works part-time (casual) in an unskilled job. The casual hours, which are the first to go in a downturn, are the difference between insolvency and being able to pay the huge mortgage each month.
In addition, these are the areas where housing prices fall the most in a downturn and leave higher proportions of home buyers in negative equity.
So while these families were lauded by successive governments as living the Australian dream and built McMansions on the periphery of our cities, clogged their driveways up with huge SUVs to run the kids to school in, and a boat or two, they are actually very exposed to an economic downturn.
A significant slowdown will see the casual hours drop quickly, the trades contract and their housing values fall. All three impacts then push these families to the brink or into insolvency.
While the vulnerability we identified then was in relation to a loss of casual hours, the FWC decision means that these workers will lose income even if hours remain constant.
Expect to see rising mortgage and credit card defaults, which will multiply.
5. Textbook models that predict employment will grow if wages are cut have no evidential basis. Employment is driven by the strength of spending. Wage cuts reduce income and undermine spending.
6. Time use is indivisible and there is diversity. While all people might attend a sporting event, for example, on "average", for a small time per weekend, actual spectators at each event spent a large chunk of time there.
Adding extra hours of casual work wipes out the basic social and recreational activity for most people. That sacrifice requires penalties to be paid.
7. Employment decisions by firms are not solely based on costs. Businesses supply output and hire workers in response to sales. Cut income and spending and employment fall.
8. Conservatives are always bemoaning the breakdown of the family and the need to promote family values again as a presumed source of social stability. Meanwhile, they advocate economic policies that undermine the capacity of families to engage together.
The fact is that penalty rates are one of the barriers that protect the rest of us from increased employer exploitation. If we accept that workers who give up the usual leisure times and work at the same rates as any time is reasonable then we will then be compelled to defend things such as the standard working day, holiday pay, equipment and safety allowances, sick pay and the rest of the conditions that make work for a capitalist tolerable.
If penalty rates go, we are allowing capital to drive wedges into things that we consider to be important as a society.
What we can do about it?
Already, some businesses have said they will ignore the FWC's decision and continue to pay their casual and weekend workers the same rates as now. In other words, they reject the rationale that wages are too high.
We should all start supporting those firms and boycotting firms who take advantage of the FWC decision.
This is the thin end of the wedge.
The employer groups in other sectors are already lining up and falling over each other to file demands in their areas for penalty rate cuts.
The rationale presented by the FWC is so general that it is hard to see how they could consistently not flow the wage cuts on to all sectors.
So we have to do something about it.
The fact is that the unions are now virtually powerless. Successive governments on both sides of politics (which have effectively morphed into the same neo-liberal unit) have deliberately legislated and regulated to weaken the power of unions.
The unions haven't helped themselves – they ignored the rise in mass unemployment in the 1980s, were male-dominated and hostile to female dominated industries, didn't embrace the youth, and went along with the Labour Party's shift to the neo-liberal right. The unions still fund the Labour Party which is one of those things that defy reason.
The upshot is that the unions can no longer (or won't) engage in serious hostile action that brings the economy to its knees. They are effectively easy beats.
A broader citizen action at the grass roots level is needed if significant changes are to be made.
While the conservative media and spokespersons have been salivating since Thursday about the FWC's decision, there is a growing sense of hostility in the community about this outcome.
Somehow, attacking the incomes of more than a million of our lowest-paid workers doesn't seem like a good thing to do for many Australians.
Perhaps, they see it as the thin end of the wedge and that they will be next.
Or perhaps, and we can only dream, that they see it as a pernicious and indecent assault on our comrades who already are on the brink of poverty (if not over it) and need every chance they can get to make their lives a little more tolerable.
If I was the Government I would sack the FWC and legislate so that wage cuts are illegal. But our conservative government is lying low (because it knows how unpopular the decision is) but quietly salivating along with the rest (because they actually have been supporting this attack on living standards for years.
That is enough for today!

"The trade unions could rebel. They won't."
Indeed. Possibly the most depressing part of it all.
At least where there are ready retail, hospitality and fast food alternatives, we could all, as potential customers, politely enquire whether the penalty rate cut has been passed before spending our consumer dollars. By politely, I don't necessarily mean sotto voce.
We could also make the enquiry to head and branch offices by phone. mail, fax and email, and report replies (or non-replies) by social media.
Yes Alphonse. hard to keep this up though. All of this relies on a lot of effort that most people do not have the time for. I heartily agree with your thinking though!
Coles, Woolworths, IGA, and ALDI will most likely take advantage of the new rules. Hence, pretty difficult for people to boycott them given our reliance on them for groceries as well as fuel.
With respect to coffee shops , restaurants, and so on I'll be avoiding any of them like the plague and letting them know why.
I also think a campaign to get Parliament to sit on weekends so members can get out into their electorates during the week would be a great idea.
An utter disgrace, and another reason we need a Job Guarantee. When people have a 9-5 Monday to Friday option at the living wage in the local area then we won't need a commission. Competition can be left to sort out the payment rates and competition is always good – so we're told.
It really is time we started treating businesses like cattle, not pets.
I was recently told my suburb [Mosman] has 54 coffee shops! and my source said they are all struggling. No doubt saturation is partly responsible but lower Sunday penalty rates will seem a godsend to proprietors. People have said they will not abide by the ruling, but I doubt it will last more than a few weeks. I think Sunday penalty rates are a carry over from earlier times, so in principle I don't argue with cutting it. What I would suggest is that week day wages be raised to compensate, even though it won't benefit everyone, especially those who can only work on Sundays.
Are the Commission members published and their voting preferences known?
If so they should be recognised for their actions and publicly accountable.
I'm not sure why Sunday is any different from any other day. Does it have some sort of special significance?
Throughout my working life I always worked whatever days I fancied, usually being in environments that allowed flexible working. I never earned any extra for Sunday or any other day, and did not seek to. As John Doyle says raising all rates would be a better solution. Providing the weekly averages are the same as or higher than they were with Sunday premiums.
Unless there is some higher entity involved, of course. I wouldn't know.
Why won't the union's rebel?
I don't know about Australia, but in the US kids don't go to school on the weekend. Having the entire day to spend with them is in some peoples mind a significant reason for declaring certain fixed days special.
"We should all start supporting those firms and boycotting firms who take advantage of the FWC decision."
I am no longer Australian however the good MMT Aussies should consider this:
Digital advocacy: have a 'name and shame' website domain name registered, start a database of business cutting penalty rates or those upholding the previous legislation. (use to a geo location street map system like goole maps or open layers)
Employees could send a copy of their payslip anonymously as proof of the penalty rate cut.
Then contact all the progressive media about the site. Maybe an equivalent of 'thumbs up/down'
mechanic but instead potential customers could click indicating their decision to go somewhere else instead.
Call it a "you lost my purchase" button ;-)
Meanwhile, in the news:
Former IMF chief Rodrigo Rato has been sentenced to four-and-a-half years in jail for embezzling money from two Spanish banks he used to run.
Rodrigo Rato's fall from grace
2004: Mr Rato leaves Spain's economy ministry to head IMF
2007: He returns to Spain after three years in Washington, citing unexplained personal reasons. An internal IMF report in 2011 criticised the organisation under Rato's leadership, saying it "failed to anticipate the crisis, its speed and magnitude"
2010-12: During his 18-month stint at Bankia, Spain sees the unravelling of the biggest banking disaster in its history, prompting an EU bailout of Spain's financial sector
July 2012: Mr Rato is called to court to explain Bankia management, following complaints from 15MpaRato and political party UPyD
2013: His name crops up in the "black credit card" affair
2014: Mr Rato resigns from Popular Party
2015: Arrested for seven hours during police search of home and office .
2016: Panama Papers leak reveals Mr Rato as a client of Mossack Fonseca, which helped him to wind up two offshore companies worth €3.6m

That would just engender a false sense of security in the next generation. They should learn that there is nothing beyond their own resources to survive in this world.
Good parenting is making sure of an empty home with a kettle and enough pot noodles for the next week.
Old fashioned family life is has held us back, tough love is the true path.
Well well well.
Fair work commission is stacked full of flat-earth neoliberal grand muftis. Today's scripture becomes science because technically its not the governments decision its an independent (stacked) panel. ;-)
Simply boycotting won't help the help… consider dropping by and leaving a tip for the workers (sans purchase), as well as a different sort of "tip" for management.
I wouldn't be so discouraged by this decision bill.
is it another win for the neo liberal agenda, or is it another nail in the coffin of the neo liberal agenda.
the neo liberals are charging into quick sand , and all because of the arithmetic. increasing profit share , declining wage share, leading to greater banking system instability and the national income effects from that, all points to a dead end for the current paradigm.
we just have to be patient to let this unfolding tragedy play out, and in the mean time mmt is enjoying an ever greater share of the sunlight from humble beginings.
we are going to end up at 100% fiat, and no or much curtailed banking system, and mmt is going to be part of that scenario, whether it takes 20 years or 200 years.
technological changes are going to make markets, prices and banks irrelevant
Nigel, you are lucky to have that option, but in essence you're like a lottery winner who's saying everyone else should win the lottery too. Did you ever work in retail or hospitality?
We were recently shocked to learn that the phlebotomist that took my wife's blood samples when she was in hospital a little while ago said that he needed to penalty rates because he couldn't survive otherwise. The depth to which financial stress is reaching into the population is alarming – unless you looked you wouldn't know it was there. Abbott's blast at his own party came at a most convenient time for Turnbull – whom he has blamed for the worst approval ratings since coming to leadership. If it wasnt for Abbott he would only have himself to blame for refusing to recognise the consequences of the tribunal's decision.
Yes agreed. The score was only 1 point worse than the previous poll 2 weeks earlier. Turnbull is really getting into a muddle.
Neo-liberals won't stop until every single human being live like me — with family in a cockroach infested apartment. =/ In their world, everybody should live in lower and lower standard and somehow thats progress. its so goddamn stupid.
"Studies show that extending weekend work compromises these non-work activities and reduces quality of life."
Haha… Do these employers realize that there are things other than work on this planet. They have this unnatural obsession about work. Aren't employers just greedy scumbags at this point.
"Conservatives are always bemoaning the breakdown of the family and the need to promote family values again as a presumed source of social stability. Meanwhile, they advocate economic policies that undermine the capacity of families to engage together."
Bravo. That's the republicans in the US.
One could believe that the no disadvantage test makes cutting wages with no trade off illegal now without any changes to FWC.
A cut in the company tax rate would have been smarter.

There are two new cases of Covid-19 in New Zealand today, the Ministry of Health has confirmed.
One of today's new cases is in a managed isolation facility, while the other is a historical case identified via contact tracing.
There were no new cases in the community today.
The imported case was man in his 30s who returned from Russia via the United Arab Emirates on 21 September. He tested positive on his third day test.
The historical case was tested after being linked to a charter flight from Christchurch to Auckland where three family members since tested positive, however the new case had previously tested negative on both their day 12 and day three test in managed isolation.
All remaining passengers on the flight have now been tested except a young child. There is one test pending, but otherwise all remaining tests have come back negative.
The Ministry of Health said there were just two people in hospital as of today, with one each in Auckland City and North Shore hospitals. Neither were in intensive care.
Today, one person also recovered from the illness, bringing the total number of active cases is 62, of which 30 are in managed isolation and 31 are from out in the community.
Since August 11, only seven remaining close contacts which have been identified by the Ministry of Health are still being contacted.
New Zealand's total confirmed number of Covid-19 cases is 1475.

At least 166 people died in violent protests that rocked Ethiopia in the days following the murder of popular singer Haacaaluu Hundeessaa, police said on Saturday.
The singer, a member of the Oromo ethnic group, the largest in Ethiopia, was shot dead Monday night in Addis Ababa by unknown assailants, fueling ethnic tensions threatening the country's democratic transition.
"In the aftermath of Haacaaluu's death, 145 civilians and 11 security forces lost their lives in the unrest in the region," said Girma Gelam, deputy police commissioner for the Oromia region, in a statement on the company. State Fana Broadcasting.
Ten other people died in the capital Addis Ababa.
Girma said that 167 others had "suffered serious injuries" and that 1,084 people had been arrested.
Officials attributed the deaths to a combination of lethal force by security agents and inter-ethnic violence.
Girma added that the violent unrest has now "completely stopped".
Haacaaluu's music gave voice to Oromos' widespread feeling of economic and political marginalization during years of anti-government protests that propelled Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed to power in 2018.

HARLINGEN — Valley International Airport is continuing its march up the charts when it comes to shipping cargo, airport officials say.
Marv Esterly, director of aviation for VIA, this past week told the airport board the last Federal Aviation Administration rankings of cargo airports as of 2018 showed the airport has moved to 71st in the nation in weight moved.
And while this year is not matching the previous year's growth of 21.78 percent, so far for 2019 the airport's cargo freight is increasing.
"Air cargo is also up for the year, 5.2 percent for the year," he told the board.
Passenger traffic at VIA is also up this year, with July records indicating the airport saw 32,460 enplanements (passengers departing), a 17.2 percent increase over July 2018.
Overall passenger enplanements for the fiscal year which ends Sept. 30 totaled 293,551 through July, an increase of 13.1 percent over the same period the previous year.
The biggest air cargo hauler at Valley International, FedEx, was down 10.7 percent in July. Southwest Airlines cargo was up 7.5 percent, while ABX Air (DHL is its largest client) was up 16.4 percent.
FedEx is down, Esterly said, because one of its Boeing 757s is currently operating out of a different airport.
"That's why you see a little dip in their numbers," he said. "Some interesting things are happening with DHL (ABX Air). DHL actually upstaged the size of their aircraft from 757-200 to 757-300.
"That actually is a larger aircraft than they used in the past," he added. "But in any case, what they're doing, the way I understand it, is trucking a lot of their freight from Laredo to here and filling the one plane here that comes from Monterrey. When it gets here, that freight comes from the Valley as well as Laredo."
Esterly told the board that when he arrived in 2014 to take over at VIA the airport ranked 83rd in the nation in cargo tonnage. Then it moved up to 77th and last year came in as the 71st-busiest in the nation, moving 366 million pounds of cargo, making the airport the ninth-busiest air cargo shipper in Texas.
He predicted that once the cargo numbers are in for 2019, VIA would continue its move up the list of busiest cargo airports in the nation.
