📢 Tim Gurner, a wealthy Australian property developer, faced backlash for suggesting a 40-50% increase in unemployment and criticizing workers' attitudes during the COVID-19 pandemic.
🏡 Tim Gurner, CEO of Gurner Group, stirred controversy by advocating for a substantial increase in unemployment during a speech at the Australian Financial Review's Property Summit.
😷 He claimed that workers became "arrogant" during the pandemic, and productivity declined as people showed reduced interest in working.
💼 Gurner emphasized the need for economic pain and a reminder that employees work for their employers.
📱 His remarks spread quickly on social media, drawing criticism from politicians and commentators.
🗣 Democratic Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez criticized the growing CEO-to-worker pay ratio.
📢 Australian media commentator Mike Carlton called Gurner's attitude emblematic of issues in capitalism.
💬 Business leaders on LinkedIn expressed outrage at Gurner's stance, describing it as class warfare.
💼 Gurner suggested that a 40-50% increase in unemployment would address COVID-19's productivity impact.
💰 Gurner, with a net wealth of $600 million, had previously advised millennials to curb spending on luxuries.
🇦🇺 Australia's unemployment rate is at 3.6%, with about 500,000 jobless individuals; a 50% rise would affect roughly 250,000 workers.
🏢 Gurner Group owns a property and development portfolio valued at $6.4 billion, having initially started with a loan from his grandfather.
