"Australian's are so smart" they're letting the government give their inheritance away.

"White Australia Policy - a demonized term" - "what I think - is this valid" - "what I hear - is the dim / dumb thud" of jumping on the band wagon. Didn't your parents tell you "don't believe everything you see on TV". Someone said "most people rationalize by analogy - when creating new paradigms it's important to go back to first principles to Physics". Ranting 60 year old socialist / capitalist propaganda isn't going to get you far.

I "haven't heard many valid" arguments against the White Australia Policy - I'll have a read and see. Many countries are substantively monocultures - Socs and Caps promote western multiculturalism, because it's to their advantage. If someone promotes something - with sparse evidence - you can usually say that the reason is they are conning someone.

We probably need to review citizenship for children born of foreign born parents, foreign born may need to be resettled to their birthplace. Due to the burgeoning skilled immigrant cohort, we may need to average down refugee numbers, and given the number of world refugees it may not be sustainable to accept refugees at all. In future culture wars people who have previously bet on certain outcomes will suffer somewhat - as with Desmond Tutu (justice or peace) there are hard decisions (do we want peace or destruction). I'm referring to people that have spouses and family members from other cultures - there may be restrictions on family reunions. The earlier we start the less the impact.

This isn't cultural superiority, or hate, but to fix "cultural hijack".

But what would you expect if you tried to "reverse ninety thousand years of natural culture" (since we came out of Africa) - "in fifty years".

Culture is as important as family - every family should have their own home - every culture should have their own country.

The smart like to do things, the wise understand they shouldn't.

We can't always improve on nature.

Are you suggesting that we ship back all people
with British ancestors who came here and took
over this land from the Indigenous people?
How would that work?

ttbn,

In our society the main opposition to abortion comes from the Catholic Church and fundamentalist Protestants. At the Cairo Population Conference the Catholic Church joined with the Islamists. In return for the Islamist opposition to abortion the Catholic Church agreed not to support education for women. The Catholic Church, Islamists and fundamentalist Protestants all oppose sensible population policies.

cont'd ...

I forgot to mention that regarding the "White Australia"
policy - our history books once told us that "The First
Fleet arrived. It brought 1000 English convicts." It
didn't. It brought 1000 convicts but probably they came
from a dozen different countries. As somebody put it -
"English jails were no respecters pf nationality."

The first Italian arrived on January 26th, 1788 -
Giuseppe Tuso. There were people from South Africa, there
were people from Ceylon, from India, from Spain, from
Portugal, from Hungary. So when people say, "Do you believe
Australia should become a multi-racial society?"
The reply should be, "It doesn't matter what I think. I can
tell you what it is - which is a society of tremendous
diversity." In some schools, 90 % of the students speak
a language other than English as their first language.
Now schools take this into account and foreign languages have
become part of the curriculum. Most people who are now a
part of this lovely country of ours are delighted to
belong, to be accepted. It means a great deal to them to
become citizens of a free and prosperous country.

Australia is a happier land than most others.

Banjo, yes OK in your way we know voters can and have, said stop the boats, want to bet they will say stop the Muslims? in the future they may well, in fact that truth holds within it this truth, the ALP will not ever dare or want to change the stop the boats policy,they know about that informal power,this migration problem is not however anti Muslim , it is anti many including South African people.we DARE not talk here about it in depth, for fear of damaging this forum, but if a majority truly held such deep fears why has one notions vote fallen?

Canem Malum,
"All nuclear powers have UN veto power or will soon with the possible exception of North Korea."
What makes you think India, Pakistan and Israel will soon have veto power?
Or had you forgotten they have nukes?
