You will just have to learn how to retire at 80. 45 for me is the new 25.

It’s the Howard/ Rudd big Australian plan.

Rest the develop world has cornered our leaders to accept their non desirable and as a petty country on the world stage to save face they have agreed.

It’s simple as .

How else can I prime minister explain away being paid more than the American president?

Do as we told, rich get richer , poor poorer, Australia so far this millennium.

Across the West and in East Asia. the population is in serious decline, and in some cases, in terminal decline.

Yet we all still want our standard of living to remain high and our 'stuff' readily available and cheap.

We want our infrastructure to continue to improve, our health system to remain 'the envy of the world', and our income to jest get better and better.

What we're not prepared to do, is have kids at a rate commensurate with all of the above being locally sustainable.

If not immigration to manage the problem... Then what?

bit of a ponzi scheme there meister

if you visit the outer suburbs, there are no hospitals, no new public transport,
just endless rows of dog box housing and people doing service jobs to service all the social problems that come from this barren existence

and our standard of living was so high because of cheap fossil fuels

period

20 litres of deisel enable me to do the work of 100 men doing manual labour for a week

take away cheap energy and standards of living will plummett.

victorians may die of the cold next winter
mains gas will not be available
and you just try and make bricks,concrete, timber, tiles, stainless steel without cheap fossil fuel power.

the costs have doubled in the last 5 years and so will the cost of new housing

its a simple choice

burn coal like china and india (our coal by the way)

or accept a lower standard of living

pretty simple choice for me

i love the stoic life

but for a fat sloppy entitled fecker in the burbs..he wants his air con, his netflix, his home deliveries, his cheap sugary foods , his bulk billing, his free public hospital, his free nursing home

tough titties..he aint gunna get it Cheesy

So you're for Small Australia. Fewer people, but richer, and defending all that land with US weapons bought off the shelf.

No. Geography is destiny. Australia is part of Asia, and if we can't breed up then we need immigrants.

And it seems we can't breed up. Bruce doesn't like Shiela "that way." Bruce wants to spend all his time on his import business, and Shiela has her nail salon.

27 million people on the 2nd driest continent in the world is more than enough. So that's not "small Australia" ... Big Australia like the 2030 renewables & zero emissions targets is not practical or attainable.

In case you haven't noticed we are in a cost of living & housing crisis. As well as increased homelessness as a result.

We can't house anymore migrants ... especially since Albanese has bought in nearly a million in his term of office with that forecast to have increased to 1.6 million by the end of 2025 into 2026.

You'd be another all for a Soylent Green solution to our aging population?

Don't forget your turn is coming.

You've already retired ... never held a steady job, have dependency & mental health issues.

Politics is primarily local and contemporary.

Nobody is interested in economic salvation prophesied to be delivered in 50 years...

All want to be assured that sustained prosperity is at hand!

Remember 'Populate or Perish'? Australia has been populating by adoption since 1788.

New migrants just moved up here. They saw how Caucasian the region was at the time. Then they moved back south. Perhaps we should start lowering the migration rates to pre-Labor levels, so that us Aussies can have a chance to breed.

As the covid isolation policies have shown us, if we cut migration down to a bare minimum, we lose Australian productivity. If we increase emigration, we maintain Australian productivity.

No. The Asians usually stick to themselves. We have seen an uptick in rural and regional Aussies having babies. There might be a bit of a population collapse in Brisbane by 2032.
