Immigration will be more important as time goes on. Australia is a service related economy, and we are heading into an ageing crisis. Studies have showed that by 2050, the proportion of those aged over 65 will be 25% (we are currently pushing 22%). And the proportion of younger and tax producing population is decreasing. Already nursing homes, and aged care support services are under funded and under staffed. Without immigration of younger population, we simply cannot sustain.

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

What to support bludging mugs like you?

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

Work commitments are about 30 hours a week. That is 2 hours prior to work for preparation. One hour after work to wind down. Then it is my usual work hours of 3 to 5 hours a day anywhere from 3 to 6 days a week. So, I could be working 10 hours a week. Or I could be working up to 30 hours a week.

The most work I have done in a 24 hour period is about 15 hours. So, that is 15 + 2 hours preparation + 1.5 hours for lunch and a break + 1 hour wind down before I went to bed. That was a 19 hour day. I got paid the 15 hours. I slept the 6 hours and then did a 4 hour shift the next day. Best pay I have ever gotten since the year 2010.

However, because of my health concerns (which have only abated in the last month or so), I had to wind back my hours until I snapped out of my "self-medication" issues. By the time I finish my leave, I should have lost the remainder of my obesity.

Yes, we are doing that by increasing the retirement age. However, this is not always possible with every profession, esp those with higher physical demand.

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

Don't forget your turn is coming.

But Gnads, this is how it works. Even with the liberals, they would not stop immigration all together. They merely put a hypothetical ceiling number with no real policy to ensure how that number is going to be enforced. That is the reality. We are a service based economy with an Ageing population. Service economy need people to service and to supply those services. There is no green, blue, or red ways to get around it.

We definitely need immigration but it has to be controlled
in the numbers and types of people we let in.

It is easy for the minor parties to try to isolate all the issues impacting Australia on immigration, and this time housing crisis.

The housing crisis that is facing Australia today is multifactorial, it stems from decades of economic policies of successive labor and liberal government across Federal, state and local council levels.

I can guarantee you can stop immigration tomorrow, and or import 1 million tradies, you would still have a housing crisis on hand.

Don’t listen to One Nation. Their policy won’t fix Australia.

Bullshit - only Pauline can fix the problem.
It will only get a lot worse under nutcase Albo.
Dutton would only be a little better.

If you wanted to build houses why -

out of all the people they imported only 1,800 were qualified tradies

Albo is a halfwit - he is unfit to be the PM.

If you look at One Nation’s major donors, they are from Property Real estate and construction. Right wing businessmen. Hotels, and retail service sectors. Those sectors all require a larger Australia to function. Money talks.

In 2022, One nation directed preference to labour in five seats in QLD and Tasmania, because of liberal preference for Jackie Lambie in Tasmania. Self interest more than what their voters would have preferred.

At least with the other parties, like Katter, Nationals, and even Clive Palmer, their position is consistent.
