Just before the government started turning the boats back, the number coming
on boats every month had risen to 28,000.
Now that equals 56,000 every 2 months, that means we would have had 336,000
coming every year, That amount of people equals a good sized regional town every year. Given the fact that there are already 200,000 coming on planes through the front door. It adds up to no small amount of people.
Add in the billions we spend on people in foreign aid. But that's the trouble when you
try to help people, they get here and then want to bring their whole tribe here. The whole time throwing their weight around trying to change our way of life and using our law courts against us.
