from 1000 to 6000 nis a nurse salary is 14000nis up 55000 nis while one third of the children are living undher the poverty line and people with regular salaries of 6000 nis have to deal with a 2,5% increase in the salary the only think that cares the histadrut are nurses ,truckers,bus drivers,teachers,doctors the rest can go to hell very good!!!

The strike started with a complaint that the nurses are overworked, and ended with pay raises that a quick calculation shows amount to about $600 million annually. Where will this money come from? Will they raise VAT or health tax, so that everyone, even the poor, will pay? Or increase the deficit so that the banks will make a bigger profit? What other programs will be cancelled? Will the nurses have to work harder because it is impossible to hire more? Will inflation caused by the pay raise mean the rest of us will become poorer?

we the people must act with full force againt government policies mks 60000 ins and i gotta break my a..s working for a 6000 salary and prices going up !!!!

the nurses success. May all who fight the RIGHT REALISTIC and PEACEFUL fight be as successful. These nurses were not well treated.They fought and they won.They deserve the best. My warm and best wishes to them.

#2: Missing Information - hit a lot of my own questions; thus, mine (in one question) is: Will the Dept. of Health Officials (who are, presumed, 'not' medically trained) hereafter, simply, put pressure on the next tier below them to cut-back on hiring anymore (or even not to 'replace' retiring) staff, thus causing even more harsh working conditions on those still "making bricks without straw" ???

we have,we attract more good.
