While even the author of the original article does not feel that $140k is literally the new poverty line, his piece has prompted important conversations about "benefit cliffs" and what level of income is actually required for a family to cover the basics *without outside assistance.*

The new wage lifts two-thirds of the workforce above Mexico’s family #povertyline, & above Mexico’s #minimumwage of about $1.71 per hour. A proposed nationwide shift to a 40-hour workweek without a reduction in pay (Mexico’s workweek is currently capped at 48 hours) would also mark a significant advance.

Raising Jobseeker to $80 per day—in line with the Raise the Rate campaign—and indexing it to keep up with wages would cost $9.5 billion per year.
This a fraction of the cost of superannuation tax concessions ($50 billion per year) or the Capital Gains Tax discount ($15 billion), both of which mainly benefit the richest Australians.

“Our world, in which the top 1% own more than the 95% combined, in which we’re on course for five trillionaires within a decade, is not on course to end #poverty soon, nor to meet the scale of the #climatecrisis”.
The number of people living under the $6.85 #povertyline today is in fact close to what it was in 1990, he said.
