Otokonoko, you say they take care if their own. That's sure would be a whole lot easier in a push over country like ours, where the term 'take care of your own' is dome so by financial support from the tax payer.

Poirot, there are no jobs to be had and, we can no longer provide for ourselves.

Just where are these jobs going to come from?

Suze, when migrants take the jobs the locals won't, the unions get up in arms about under payment, like $10 per hour strawberry picking.

Stop paying people to not work and those jobs will soon be filled by locals.

15,000 refugees is a sizable town, so what are the benefits of 15,000 people.

They eat. So where does all that food come from and who benefits.
They house , they wear cloths, they do things that any normal person does.

The benefits to small business is enormous. That is where growth comes from, with Australia’s measly population, we need growth.
15,000 extra persons in the population jobs are going to be created, to cater for that influx.

So there will not be any giving up involved, it will create more activity, and that is what it is all about

Doog - A lot of those new jobs supposedly created will be Government employees or on Government contracts, some will not be paid charity employees.

Where will they be housed in the affluent suburbs NO way they will be in the poor sections of any state.

All of them at the expense of tens of thousands of homeless Australians.

What about the 200,000 plus legal migrants we allow in every year?
If we cant afford a few thousand refugees how can we afford 10 times more coming here as migrants?

mikk - The ones you try to use as an example do not get free housing, welfare for life from day one, free medical etc.

Good try but you are way of mark.

You are missing the point. At present WE CAN'T PROVIDE FOR THE NUMBERS WE HAVE TODAY, without borrowing. Where do you think the additional money will come from for these extras, borrowings!

Doog, what you speak of is a dog chasing it's tail, the spending money you speak of will be welfare. These welfare dollars are coming from consolidated revenue and they were paid by the tax payer fir the intention of providing services.

WE ARE NOT MAKING ENDS MEET.

How do we provide for the extras, that's all I'm asking and, what will you give up in favor of providing for these people?
