How does bringing people here (especially 3rd world people with poor education) benefit a country that doesn't have enough jobs in the first place??

Not if they are on a working visa or a part of the skilled migration program. People who are skilled migrants have to earn quite a lot of money to remain here. Not like reffos. 90% of them are still mooching.

What sort of money making concepts do you propose to boost the GDP, no matter how many people are in the immigration stream?

The only thing that would work in the short term is to cause a sharp drop in the A$ down to US$0.50 which is probably the true value of the A$. This would cause an immediate A$ increase in the value of resource and agricultural exports which would raise the A$ value of GDP instantaneously.

This would also burn existing Chinese property investors who might be encouraged to get out of the property market and remit their money back which would reinforce downward pressure on the A$.

;D The old trick of simultaneously accusing immigrants of stealing our jobs and bludging on welfare.

Using immigrants as a scapegoat is a favourite of the right wing. Of course they get their inspiration from Nazi Germany which had the ultimate solution.

The fact is that having a growing population is one of the easiest ways to grow GDP. It is the ultimate hypocrisy of the right wing members of this forum that they have enjoyed the benefits of this growing population and growing GDP whilst simultaneously demonizing  those who helped provide it.

Refugee are not migrants. The refugee intake is about 12,000 a year. The skilled migration intakes's about 180,000.

Now. Would you like to show your proof that 68% of reffos will never hold down a job?

We know you can't, and you won't, but would you at least like to show the thinking behind your figure?

Cant find the original article.

But this one may be more relevant.

But I know you will dispute this and come up with several other "Altered., Doctored, Corrected or adjusted" Figures to show otherwise.

The fact is that new ILLEGAL arrivals, Predominantly Muzzos are a known drain on the system.

Again, just so you have the facts clear in your pointy little head.
I have no problem with LEGAL immigrants, especially those who work , pay taxes and contribute to our country.
What I take offence at is the lazy, criminal, welfare cheating, parasites.


Quote:

Review I agree with this FactCheck when it relates to unemployment among refugees, but there is some evidence that spending on social security for refugees may be significantly higher than A$100 million. The statement that refugees have an unemployment rate of 93% is clearly inaccurate, as the the ABS survey Characteristics of Recent Migrants, Australia, Nov 2013 shows. The unemployment rate is calculated as the number of unemployed as a percentage of the number who have a job plus those unemployed and looking for work. That means the non-employment rate – i.e those who are unemployed plus those outside the labour force altogether – is 72% for men and 90% for women, giving an overall non-employment rate of close to 81%. Employment increases over time. So the ABS survey also shows that in 2013 only 19% had a job, but over the 10 years covered by the survey, 36% had a job at some time.

Sad sad little troll.

Have you ever had a job?
Have you ever been accepted by another human?
Do you wonder why females and even males ignore or avoid you?

Toxic personalities like yours are a dime a dozen, and the one feature that is common to all is their inability to achieve anything with their lives.

They are easy to spot.
They make insulting remarks and attempt to belittle people in a futile attempt to make themselves feel superior.
But this is not superiority, this is sad, sad self description.

You will never be anything like a human, your insulting and degrading remarks ring true to only you.
One liners that seek to hurt, but in fact do nothing but make me feel sad for you.
You could never have the intestinal fortitude to face up to a man, so I guess Ill never meet you, coward trolls never do.

I have more and have done more that you could ever aspire to in your wildest fantasies.
Perhaps if you actually left the computer and went out into the real world.
Tore yourself away from the flickering screen and met some real people who were not computer generated.

Ill bet you even fantasize about being part of a family or team, but know that even your family avoid you because you are toxic.

I will always be better than you.
I will always be better than the lazy refugees that you so willingly defend, simply because I have and continue to contribute, something you and them have never done.

You and your like are nothing sad little Trolls that have nothing to give and see the only way of making anything out of their sad little lives is by being insulting and sick.
Like the Pecca, you have not the cerebral capacity to actually contribute to discussion, you have not the intelligence to put forward any idea or expand on any subject, you simply troll and make sick, twisted comments in your vain attempt to be something, anything, even if it is a troll.

Begone sad one.

Have you any martial arts training or awards?

Maybe volunteered for one of the emergency services?

Quote:

The mining sector currently contributes around 8.5% to Australia’s GDP (total output), and employs around 2% of the workforce (about 220,000 people). However, as with most primary products, this underestimates the impact of the mining sector. Downstream processing sometimes means that production is not counted as mining output, and is instead counted as manufacturing. There’s been a lot of discussion about taxes – but for 2013-14 financial year, the mining sector paid about $12.7 billion in taxes (which includes just $170 million from the now defunct carbon tax), and another $10 billion in royalties as payment for the minerals (to state governments). The mining sector’s biggest impact is on exports - in recent years it has made up over 50% of Australia’s total export earnings. The effect of the mining boom on exports has been huge – for example, between 2000 and 2010, the value of exports from mining rose by over 120%, from $63 billion to $139 billion.

The bananas are still growing - and the same things apply..... continuing more of the same will only yield the same result... and leaves an economy bereft of any back-ups....

What was the date on that article?  I'm sure employment in the mining sector went down, and raising heaps of cattle and sheep for the Thirty Pieces of Silverside meat export industry benefits a very few.

Here we are - from the horse's mouth - but 2014 - before the Downfall....

The resources industry spends a lot of money in the Australian economy which benefits manufacturing, construction, and services. Resource industry employees also earn at least double the average wage in Australia and they spend that money.

Without the resources industry Australian economy would have collapsed from GFC in 2009.

We will need a lot more money to keep handing over all that welfare to the Muzzos who have several wives all living off the taxpayers..
Hopefully when they crack down on the welfare bludgers, who come here, have never worked, will never work, we might actually see some of them head off to a more profitable country where they have more to offer.

Like Germany and France where they sick, twisted mates can kill all the infidels without having to worry about being harassed.

But its not all bad news.
Christian, Buddist, Jewish and other REAL religions and people who are HONEST and WORTHWHILE are still welcome to come here and contribute, work and become a part of Australian culture and diversity.

These are the immigrants we need, not the ILLEGAL, country shoppers that only come to suck the country dry and be of no worth at all.
