CJ Morgan,
thanks for your reply. Anyone else like to state their preference or rather, which group they believe would contribute to a more harmonious Australia ?

From Indigenous perspective you are all refugees, why else leave your otherwise perfectly comfortable homelands?

Oh, thats right, i forgot 'progress' and then reconciliation.

Scotty- Once again seems the only one who tells it like it is and back it with facts.
Speaking of Kevin Andrews he denies our meat workers to enter Australia but ALL other Industries is fine?
Must be a done deal with the cruel Live Animal Exporters Industry.
Why single out JUST meat workers otherwise.

Rainier, Progress & reconcilliation is not something that other people can give you. It has to come from yourself. To reconcile you have to not only recognise the other's shortcomings but your own as well.
What I am asking is, do some refugees contribute to our society more than others ? By accepting too many refugees are we not risking losing the very life style the refugees come to Australia for ? A refugee is a refugee, no matter how poor or uneducated. Not every refugee is one in the sense of the word though. Some are expelled from their society because of their inability to lead a life without causing trouble. Are we obliged to take them in as refugees ? I have witnessed troublemakers being chucked out & sent to another community. It sort of solved the first community's problem but created a new one for the other.
I am for helping people in need but not for doing things for people who just hold out their hand & then bite the hand that gave.

individual you should start a new post with your question as I dont think most people on OLO will see it here.

Yes- Well spoken indeed.
