party and its alliance with capital has become so blinded by money and greed that it does not realise the workers of this country do not accept this minimum wage and they see it for what it is. That is why the unions with alliance are falling apart because they are so unable to represent the interest of the working class. Twenty rand is far too little. Remember that a R20 minimum wage was first proposed nearly five-years ago. Since then inflation, petrol prices and a general cost of living have devalued the R20 massively, which we even then objected to.
