By Eric Claus, published 30/6/2006

Some solutions are just so simple - drastically reduce immigration to Australia.

Ludwig,

I take it back about Costello for PM.

From http://www.smh.com.au/news/national/costello-hatches-censustime-challenge-procreate-and-cherish/2006/07/24/1153593272565.html

""AUSTRALIA faces a future of social upheaval unless couples start having more children, warns the Treasurer, Peter Costello.
Launching the 2006 Census yesterday, Mr Costello said that without an increased fertility rate, Australia would be forced to buttress its population decline with increased immigration.
This, he said, would change the nation's social composition and lead to problems similar to those being experienced in western European nations such as France, the Netherlands and Denmark.""

This Melbocentric nut is prepared to bugger SydSEQ with immigrants and social upheaval in order to lock in future prosperity for the rest of Australia. This while the possibility of sustaining current growth in this level of prosperity becomes more impossible with every 10 cents rise in gas prices.

I wouldn't let him test drive my son's dinky. We need to get George Gregan to kick the bastard into touch!

We want a leader that will put immigration and fake economic growth based on monopolies and lies about small business on hold. We want a leader who will immigrate the best TEACHERS to train Australians to do the jobs they are being duped out of and to prepare for a tougher future where bottom lines will not count as much as smarts and innovative ideas.

Thank goodness for that KAEP.

Costello has got to be the * * of the century, with his policies that are diametrically opposed to what we desperately need.

So where’s Beazley on this? What a brilliant opportunity for him to denounce pro-natalist policies and celebrate our low fertility rate.

Oh oh oh yes… of course…it was that other * * Keating who introduced the baby bonus.

Yes, Labor is fully in support of it, aren’t they

Peter Costello’s threat reminded me of comments related by a meatworker from his employer that went something like “If you don’t do it, we will get someone from os to do it, and you can lump the consequences.”. Unlike the “Background Briefing” interviewee though, Peter Costello’s threat is pretty hollow. He would well know that changing demographics in the world is going to make Australia’s parasitic reliance on skilled migrants far more difficult to realise in coming years. It is quite a contrast to think that someone who would demand exhaustive scientific examination before acting on the global warming threat accepts the benefit of population growth as an article of faith. Perhaps it is because all the research he keeps commissioning keeps finding the “wrong” answers.
