Banging on and on about rights.......

[poddster]

......under what "right" are people paid to exist without doing anything for their payment.?

Is it just because they exist?

Am3,

You have completely missed the point, so I will reiterate.There is work and somr are unwilling to do it.

That is as simply as it can be put.

I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

In this case I m not sure even you really knew what you meant, and  to quote my new favourite saying: 

"If you can't say what you mean, then don't be surprised if people assume you mean what you say.

Well. That was interesting. Having to give proof of who I was and having it not accepted, 

So much for everyone having the right to post as long as they abide by the rules, which I did. Just not some posters views.

perhaps it's a response to my posts.

[poddster]

Do I have style too. Rosie?

DDoes it matter?

Yes, it does, because there was a time that every factory had a sign with "positions vacant"; often 1/2 a dozen jobs available.  If you wanted job you could walk down a street of factories and choose what ever suited you, and they were happy to train you.  The same with shops.  Every other shop had a little sign in the window -  staff wanted.

It is totally different now; and people with limited English have it even more difficult.  So, I am sure that unemployment among newly arrived people, especially from Muslim country will be somewhat higher than in general Australian  populations.  However the figure given for Afghans looks very strange.  Unless it was from the time that large number of them arrived, and were let into community but were not allowed to work.  Also many unaccompanied minors who came in went to school, and then on to UNI, and so they would have been counted as receiving benefits.  But I know factory owner who employs many Hazaras, and he cannot praise their work ethics enough.

Nova, what do you think happened to all those jobs?

Could it have been that the unions priced the worker out of a job?

Ever increasing pay increase demands and demands that are way over the top has had its effect.

The ever increasing dole payment made working for a living unattractive, why work when you can get paid to bludge?

Whitlem started the ball rolling and now it is out of control.

The jobs got exported to Asia.  We cannot compete with China on that level; unless you want Australians to live in slums like people in Asia do.

You say that all you ever got was 10 pounds on arrival, but what about the 8 years waiting?  Somebody supported you.  Do you come from Hungary?
