Clarke I too have a UNI Post Grad degree with specialization courses attended in my field of work both here and overseas, which was funded through hard work without any assistance or handouts from anyone. I am still on a basic middle income salary after 16 years of service in this industry,having worked hard for my employer,earned them millions. They have employed people at higher positions with edcuational qualifications less than mine and with no commitment to work, only on the basis of "who they knew" amongst the top management. On a daily basis we see these new employee's having a ball at company expense whilst we are told there are no monies for increments to salaries. We get told off if we are late by 5 minutes arriving into work whilst these other employee's at higher positions take luxurious coffee and lunch breaks and even scoot off from work without a word to anyone.So in short we the middle income earners will be worse off than before with this GST increase. I do not foresee only top professionals escaping this nest, we too must decide if it is worth it to be loyal to one's employer/country as they do not care a hoot about us.
