Dear individual,

Your questions have already been answered in the
citations I gave from the Dept. of Treasury
Report earlier - as to which migrants and which
groups - and what they contribute et cetera.

As for your concerns about the type of people
that are allowed into this country? Our
authorities do a pretty good job. And new rules
have been put in place to deal with those who
break our laws. They will be severely punished.
We have a legal framework in place to deal with
those sort of problems. As for the thefts that
have happened to you. I'm sorry to hear that.
I assume that you don't have insurance. Perhaps
that's something you might want to look into.
Or take preventive measures to make your home
burglar-proof. Just a thought.

Dear Shadow Minister,

Thank You. I had totally forgotten about the
illegal economic migrants who come by plane -
and their numbers are huge.

I wonder what's being done about them?

Belly,

I didn't make anything up. I was just translating what wrote.

No. I am not saying all immigration is negative, but it should only occur when it is needed. It is not needed now, particularly the huge intake that Scott Morrison is using to bodgie up the figures to fool us into thinking that Australia is benefitting from growth. The only people benefitting are the migrants themselves, big business and the political class. The rest of us are worse off from a GDP per head point of view. I am surprised that you, as a union man, would not want Australians fully employed before started bringing in migrants.

When immigration is necessary, which it could be from time to time, I have no objections to who comes here, except for Africans and Muslims of any race. They must have a job to come to, and they must speak English. Pauline Hanson's speech against Asians was embarrassing, but she has since backed off on that.

I have never voted for PH; I don't think One Nation has ever fielded candidates in SA: certainly not in my electorate.

Dear Belly,

The report from the Department of the Treasury, presented
to the Federal Government stresses that cutting Australia's
migration rate would cost the budget billions of dollars,
lower living standards and reduce jobs growth. The Report
prepared by the Departments of Treasury and Home Afairs
found that "Migrants deliver an economic dividend for
Australia due to the current policy settings which favour
migrants of working age who have skills to contribute to
the economy."

This in turn increases Australia's GDP and GDP per
person, with positive flow-on effects for living standards.
A reduction in immigration would shrink Australia's
workforce.

Of course the report also carries a warning that governments
need to spend more money maintaining existing infrastructure
to keep up with the pace of growth. These pressures should
not only be addressed by new infrastructure they should also
include better use of existing infrastructure.

Foxy,
What am I missing, I can't see any of my questions answered in your previous post ?
There's a bit about 10 billion over 50 years but nothing about the long-term welfare recipients nor which regions they're from. For a Treasury these are extremely vague figures.

The problem for One Nation and Pauline Hanson is, if they are going to articulate a reasonable political argument, then they need to attract potential politicians whose intelligence level is at least equal to that of the average dip stick! So far the party has failed miserably to attract anyone with enough intelligence to be able to even scratch themselves without stuffing it up.

Calling for the political prostitute Mark Latham or the imbecile Corny Banana to joint, could well see the demise as leader of the Lovely Pauline. The enlistment of anyone with an IQ above 20, Pauline's level, and the aforementioned duo would just make that, then her leadership would be under threat from a political genius within!
