Quote

I assured the prime minister, my administration will work hard to lay the foundation of peace in the Middle - to work with our nations in the Middle East, give peace a chance. Secondly, I told him that our nation will not try to force peace, that we'll facilitate peace and that we will work with those responsible for a peace.

If you're a poor worker - this is for new workers coming into the workplace - your benefits will increase at the current rate of increase.
