Immigrants Flooding into Australia
Dec 15th, 2017 at 1:11pm
 
Quote:
The Australian Bureau of Statistics yesterday revealed, under the cover of Christmas and festive cheer, stats on Australia's past 12 month intake of migrants.

ABS Demography Director Beidar Cho said: "Australia's net overseas migration for the year ending 30 June 2017 was 245,400, an increase of 27 per cent from the previous 12 months (2015-16).

"Net overseas migration in New South Wales and Victoria increased by 31 per cent and 23 per cent respectively. This growth has seen both states surpass their previous recorded high in 2008-09."

It's the elite replacing the white middle and underclass. Desperate immigrants are great for big business.

Perhaps the Government you voted for subscribes to the "migrants lift the three "Ps" of high economic growth - population, participation and productivity" argument.

I'm not sold on the idea, myself.

Most migrants do low skilled and low paid work. That's why the rich want them.

I think they're pretty open about the "migrants lift the three "Ps" of high economic growth - population, participation and productivity" argument.

They say that Australia has a "relatively stable fertility rate" of 1.9 births per woman, which is below the replacement level.

So, without migration, Australia's population will "inevitably dwindle".

And, they see this as a bad thing.

Is it though?

Xenophobes are copying & pasting fear-mongering posts from Pauline Hanson's Facebook page, and then not citing a reference because they're too embarrassed to admit they follow a racist politician on social media?     Undecided

So why is the government flooding the country with migrants then Pecca?


Perhaps the Government you voted for subscribes to the "migrants lift the three "Ps" of high economic growth - population, participation and productivity" argument.

I'm not sold on the idea, myself.




Most migrants do low skilled and low paid work. That's why the rich want them.

The Afghans put the cement on and the white boss comes around two days later to put the white on!

All industries are the same!


I hate hearing this crap that it's about building a multicultural society . It's purely money. I wish they'd just tell the Australian people the truth. Ghettoising our multicultural suburbs helps nobody but the rich.

The rich are so bored : all they can do is kick their kids in the head for a laugh and that IS IT!

You only need one house ,.. unless your drugged up and your born to be heartless sons and daughters totally mess it all up just to gain attention of course!

Go the new cun*stralia?

What sort of migrants are we talking about?

Where are they from?

Worth a read.


Here's a bit for you :

The delaying of fertility, which is common in most Western industrial nations, indicates that women are having fewer children later in life. But without adequate planning and preparation on fertility issues, Australia will be left behind.

What declining fertility rates mean

Australia’s fertility rate has been below replacement level since the 1970s. Women are having fewer than two babies over their life course.

Sub-replacement fertility is important for governments. Entitlements are skewed to the old and young, which requires a robust middle-aged workforce to support these dependent populations.

Without two children to eventually support their two ageing parents through tax dollars and direct care, governments have insufficient resources to meet their dependent populations’ economic and care demands.

I think they're pretty open about the "migrants lift the three "Ps" of high economic growth - population, participation and productivity" argument.

They say that Australia has a "relatively stable fertility rate" of 1.9 births per woman, which is below the replacement level.

So, without migration, Australia's population will "inevitably dwindle".

And, they see this as a bad thing.

Is it though?

It is because human beings can't get along with one another. Economic theory neglects the human element. When you get large opposing populations of people you'll get conflict. It happens all across the world and it will eventually happen here.

The last I heard our immigrations was mean to be around 190K a year.

Going up over 200K next year.

Thats why Dick Smith wanted to have a discussion on Immigration.

But now these official numbers have come out for one has to wonder, "what in the HELL is going on"!!!!

Our Politicians are betraying us and not one news outlet is calling them out on it.  Angry

Thats why Dick Smith wanted to have a discussion on Immigration.

But now these official numbers have come out for one has to wonder, "what in the HELL is going on"!!!!

Our Politicians are betraying us and not one news outlet is calling them out on it.  Angry

Same as ARVN Veterans were accepted by DVA for benefits - signed affidavits from those who served with them.....

Nowadays a Veteran of Afghanistan or Iraq or wherever has to prove every step of the way, while running the gauntlet of a bunch of d1ck-headswho have set themselves up as the voice of the veteran community - without one shred of solid paperwork or whatever to support them....

FCS - a Veteran of Afghanistan who committed suicide's wife needs to prove something she cannot do....

The Boys and Girls here know who I mean.... that negative bunch of losers who rubbish everyone else without any proof..... but they do say they get 'stat decs'...... as if that actually means anything....

Been fighting those d1cks for 17-18 years now... and the ostriches are coming home to land on their roofs..... many Afghan (etc) Vets and widows are up in arms about that lot...... I nearly scalped them once by registering their 'trade name'.. and they changed their name....

Scumbags....

There is no defaming of anyone other than themselves grendal.

It is okay to say "you know what, i jumped the gun, I am wrong". That would earn respect. Not these people. No, they respect not even themselves. They will let themselves look like total delusional nutters rather than accept what is presented to them.
Seems this person may have a personal conflict with Ms Hanson rather than a political one. The above posts prove that.

So why is the government flooding the country with migrants then Pecca?


Perhaps the Government you voted for subscribes to the "migrants lift the three "Ps" of high economic growth - population, participation and productivity" argument.

I'm not sold on the idea, myself.




Most migrants do low skilled and low paid work. That's why the rich want them.

The Afghans put the cement on and the white boss comes around two days later to put the white on!

All industries are the same!


I hate hearing this crap that it's about building a multicultural society . It's purely money. I wish they'd just tell the Australian people the truth. Ghettoising our multicultural suburbs helps nobody but the rich.


I think they're pretty open about the "migrants lift the three "Ps" of high economic growth - population, participation and productivity" argument.

They say that Australia has a "relatively stable fertility rate" of 1.9 births per woman, which is below the replacement level.

So, without migration, Australia's population will "inevitably dwindle".

And, they see this as a bad thing.

Is it though?


Most of the things I like about Australia ultimately boil down to a low population.

Despite our low birth rate, our population is still not declining. Not just because of net immigration, but because of old people refusing to die.

I also don't get the demographic crisis thing. One of the biggest financial complaints people have is housing affordability. If the population declines, we don't have to build any new houses. The price might even crash, especially in the outer suburbs. Why spend your whole life working to gather up enough money to account for all the other people trying to buy you out of Sydney?

Yes, i must say that I've never been a huge fan of the "three 'Ps' of high economic growth" argument.

I was happy when we had just 17 million people here.

For a long time British colony Australia  has become totally unattractive place for European migrants (British are not Europeans).

Long queues everywhere - that's the problem.

This isn't just immigration, it's people moving to the Eastern Seaboard cities. Apparently Sydney gets a thousand new people a week.

This move to the cities, however, has caused economic growth. Australia's building and real estate boom keeps the economy out of recession. This keeps our AAA credit rating intact, it keeps unemployment down. At 27 years, Australia has the world record for steady economic growth.

Australia's skilled migration scheme is largely responsible for this. Even mining boom and bust economies like Western Australia rely heavily on imported skills. Immigrants build houses which employs builders, and on and on the cycle goes.

Australia is not the only country in this situation. Rapid urban growth is the norm in most of Asia. China, in particular, has seen a complete reversal of its rural and urban populations. This is the biggest social shift in its history.

This shift has seen consequences for us. The price of manufactured goods has gone down, leading to cheaper cars, building materials and household goods for Australian consumers. The availability of cheaper domestic goods is a generational shift in Australia too. Most people in the suburbs now have cars. This wasn't the case in the 1980s. This has put more cars on the road. It's put more people in the shopping malls. Australians are buying more goods than ever before, and this creates more queues.

I don't like it either, but what do you do?

All of which begs the question - why are the majority of immigrants of little skills value?  What skills are there in WA mining etc that cannot be home grown, especially given the number seeking work?

What exactly are these skills in such need that cannot be provided here by locals?

There are many graduates engineers that really have no prospects at home, some will be forced to work overseas in their chosen discipline.

Many engineers in WA mining are foreigners, they've probably all gone home now but at the peak of the mining boom they were importing them like chocolates.

They should look after the home grown talent first, then if there is a shortage....!!

Well, I have to admit that I have had more than my share of creating children. Too often, I see families that are one or two children families. Some are just couples only. I started very young and fathered children that are either teenagers or young adults now.

The problem is that people nowadays want to forego having children in favour of having more cars or a better house. They are not prepared to have a larger family and having a modest car and a modest house. Put their priorities in perspective.

This is because women want careers. They don't have this problem in developing countries with sprawling populations.

That was my question too.

I see no problem with people deciding not to have children.

There are sill those who push that (short-term, economic) argument.

Wait until the water runs out, and we'll see what they think then.

That short-term economic argument led to the post- war boom. It was such a jolly boom that they decided to keep it going, so once the wogs ran out, we started letting in the Chows.

Remember, the major factor in economic growth is population growth. And the modern economy is built on economic growth.

The problem is that the government wants Australia to grow in population. Either through immigration or natural birth rate increase. If the Australian population does not reproduce in high enough numbers, the government increases immigration number into Australia.

So, it becomes a bit of a balancing act. Skyrocketing house prices brought about by increased demand in a growing populated area. People having to cut back on expenditure because they can't afford the expenses because of higher house prices. People having fewer children because they either want to save on raising children expenditures, or they want to be selfish and buy better things for themselves. Or they have larger families (which are becoming more rare) and go without in better cars and housing.

Indonesia populates like crazy and have expressed an interest in "reaquiring" South Irian Jaya. India has a population excess and are chiefly exporting people all over the world. They have fantasies about sending 10 million Indians to Australia in a short time to live. China wants to buy up a lot of Australian land. And we are to deal with Pacific Islander people who want to evacuate their islands because of economic mismanagement, under the guise of "climate change".

In 33 years time, I am sure that my children don't want to be in their 40s wondering what happened to their ideal childhoods. To be overrun with international interference in their own country, because some liberal fanatics in 2017 (and earlier) decided that "you can't be racist... you can't be nationalistic.... you can't criticise other nations" and whatever hippie bullshit that entered their minds.

Some may want Australia to populate rather than perish to international substandard. Others may want the third world societies to depopulate and perish at their own stupidity. But do you really want Australia to end up stagnating in population, just because you want to pick up the tab for the world's foul-ups? The world is not going to stop just because you want to look like you give a damn about happy-joy feelings that you think would be adopted worldwide.

Australia is not that dry. You may want to save that for people living in rural centres who have to buy water tanks everytime the month goes dry. City areas just whinge and complain when they get their generous rainfall. Then they whinge and complain when they can't distribute their water supply efficiently enough water through the cities. Rockhampton only has water problems during extreme drought (less than 500mm of rain in the year) or during excess flooding. We have to wait for the council's water treatment plants to be able to cope with producing adequate water supply. But we could handle our water problems with even twice as many people around.

As a Rockhamptonite, I seem to know more than you.

"Australia is not that dry...". "You may want to save that for people living in rural centres who have to buy water tanks everytime the month goes dry".

Cities right around Australia are cities BECAUSE they have more than adequate water supply. It is not just a river system and dams that could supply adequate water for cities over 1 million people. Desalinisation plants have successfully helped satisfy water demand, too.

It are those that live in rural areas that have the right to complain about lack of water resources. They make up 2 - 3 million of Australia's 25 million population. Do you live in a rural area, greg?

That short-term economic argument led to the post- war boom. It was such a jolly boom that they decided to keep it going, so once the wogs ran out, we started letting in the Chows.

Remember, the major factor in economic growth is population growth. And the modern economy is built on economic growth.


Yep.

I get that.

However, there's only so much water to go around.



True. But we have a lot of land.

Why can't they move to the bush instead?

Australians don't populate arid parts of Australia. They stick to the coastline and up to 200km inland where the rainfall is sufficient. It is the 2 to 3 million people who live in dry areas that can lay claim to water supply problems. Not me, and probably not anyone else on this board would have water supply problems.

People who live in cities who complain about not getting sufficient water supply, you need to fix it yourself. I have heard stories of rural folk who go without a shower for a week at a time (or even longer) and will take advantage of a downpour of rain going outside with a bar of soap to scrub themselves under the rain.

Which equates to what...  a very small water supply that can only sustain a very small population.  That's why we are fringe dwellers... Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

There are sill those who push that (short-term, economic) argument.

Wait until the water runs out, and we'll see what they think then.


Australia is not that dry.


Your astounding ignorance has been noted.


Australia the MOST ARID populated continent on Earth.

Which equates to what...  a very small water supply that can only sustain a very small population.  That's why we are fringe dwellers... Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy


Build seawater desalination solar plants. You have plenty of sunny days.

Desalination plants have lots of costly problems - primarily clearing the salt......

Desalination plants would not be a cost effective means of providing more water or providing water to more than just coastal regions.
Good luck with the environmental burden and The Greens BTW.  they are why we don't have more dams, which are needed now to sustain our current population.

The would not build desalinisation plants if they were too costly to run. They would not build other water treatment plants in general, under that reasoning. What alternative do you propose? Everyone get rain water tanks and not rely on public utilities?

We already have 2 Desal plants  being paid not to produce...  they are shutdown and were created because of Tim Flannery's scaremongering.

A drug smuggler. After another drug smuggler was released last year (?). And they usually are from the southeast corner of the state. No real surprises. I don't see Brisbanites and Gold Coasters as all that bright compared to the pragmatic Qlders.
