Property developer and CEO Tim Gurner: "We need to see unemployment rise. Unemployment has to jump 40, 50 percent in my view. We need to see pain in the economy. We need to remind people that they work for the employer, not the other way around."

I don't know what parallel universe this idiot is living in but nothing has changed over here. People know they work for an employer, we sure as hell know the employer doesn't give a rat's arse about their employees, we'd like them to, but we know they don't.

What's he on about?

Anyway he's a property developer so I think that perhaps his opinion is somewhat biased, and therefore should be ignored.
