That assumes values don't get entered with spaces:
create table lll (text varchar(100));
insert into lll (text) values ('10% - Ersthelfer');
insert into lll (text) values ('10% - Ersthelfer ');
select * from lll where text like '10% - Ersthelfer';
text
------------------
10% - Ersthelfer
(1 row)
select * from lll where text like '10% - Ersthelfer%';
text
---------------------
10% - Ersthelfer
10% - Ersthelfer
I have seen that enough times to default to using wildcard if I am
really looking for LIKE not =.
