Mr 0,
"Why are you asking that question?"
To find out the answer, of course! You seemed to be implying that it's an important and desirable feature of citizenship, yet gave no indication as to why. Using assumptions as a substitute for the facts means you're likely to reach a ridiculous conclusion, like you repeatedly have about my opinions.

And just to clarify, the "you" was aimed at you personally.

"I hope you haven't forgotten all of those years of social theory they taught to you in your engineering degree."
I remember the important things from my engineering degree. Social theory wasn't one of them, but sensitivity of results to assumptions was. If you still don't know that despite all those degrees, I don't see how they can be of much value.

NO.
It is amazing that many British and New Zealanders who have lived in Australia for over thirty years and with Australian children and grandchildren are knocked back if they apply for citizenship .Reasons in some cases are that they were on holiday overseas for a few months,etc etc.
The Immigration has a strict policy of restricting white Europeans from obtaining Australian Citizenship.
If you enter illegally or a overstayer from anywhere except New Zealand or Britain you are given Red Carpet treatment by the foreign
controlled Immigration Office.
I ask anyone to take a few minutes to look into an Australia Immigration Office.You will not see one white Australian or Indigenous
Australian.It is packed with foreigners who want their people to come to Austrralia.
It is time Australian's woke up to what is happening to their country.

Dear BROCK,

It's only going to get worse.

There is no such thing as an Australian identity any more, except in the historical sense. The poor old Anzacs and diggers who gave their lives to help create an Anglo-Australian nation would turn in their graves if they new how the politicians and business leaders had sold out their descendants to China.

There is one good thing to come out of it. At least now all the Anglo-Australians know how the poor Aboriginals feel about having been pushed off their land and having their societies and cultures decimated by the Anglo-Australians. Now the whites are going to get a taste of what it is like to have it done to them by the Chinese. A case of what goes around comes around.

Mr Opinion,
Right, so my kids have to see their future prospects diminished on account of actions taken by a foreign power 226 years ago?
The Chinese aren't going to "take over" anything, they're the being set up by those old Anglo oligarchs to bear the brunt of the working class backlash, just like they were in 1901.

Dear Jay Of Melbourne,

I don't understand what you are trying to say.

Mr 0,

'Tis quite obvious, though I'm astounded Jay's the one saying it:
The rich are fleecing the poor and blaming the Chinese, just as they did in 1901.

BTW I notice you still haven't answered my previous question even though I've explained why I've asked. Is it too difficult for you?
