      Significantly more, actually. Especially when you consider the social safety net that includes such things as universal health care, five weeks paid leave minimum, and 50 weeks paid parental leave.

      There’s no way that the pittance being floated would cover a TENTH of that for a full year, let alone having your people and country molested by EXTREMELY under-regulated predatory corporations for all eternity while having no hope of achieving better conditions through political representation.

      You’d have to be a COMPLETE idiot to want anything to do with a deal that awful.
