Politicians don't say anything without careful consideration beforehand.
Every single thing they say on the public record has been carefully thought out and planned for in advance.
There's no argument that an influx of people (immigrants) who desperately seek work and the means to make a living, might decide to offer their labour for a little bit less than the going rate.
Look . . . immigrants (especially a really humungeous and unmanageable amount of them) have the capacity to adversely affect the local price of labour.
They are competitors who drive the price of labour down. This is very basic economics.
So, we if have a struggling economy . . . sure, let's just import (or allow to be imported) a really large contingent of folks who need a job. and who are therefore willing to work for less.
Recipe for a healthy economy?
Depends who you are, doesn't it?
if you're a business owner, then employing cheaper labour is a bonus.
if you are a working person, then competing with someone who will work for less is a real trial.
We vote for people who would bring into the country whole boatloads of displaced people who have been made homeless in the first place by our own country's policies.
We vote for a govt who goes all out to create for itself a source of cheap labour at our expense.
Our own government's policies are and have been responsible for creating the current epidemic of refugees which are now threatening to flood our shores.
and then our govt has the gall to ask us to accept them with sympathy . . . a sympathy which it did not show when it bombed their countries and displaced their people and caused them to queue up and stand in line for jobs in foreign lands. . . our lands, as it happens.
doesn't matter if it's Liberal or Labor . . . the result will be the same. Cause mischief in other countries; facilitate the free movement of peoples who will work for less and will have a reduced national attatchment to the country they move to.
It's a chess game played on a grand scale.
Politicians don't care about us at all. They care about how they can manipulate us to vote.
It's a fine balancing act. The pollies want to bring in as much cheap labour as they can without making the natives restless.
and even if the natives get so restless that they boot out the self-serving politicians and elect new ones in their place; what do you think we'll get?
Just look at what they do . . . don't be hoodwinked and fooled and misled by only listening to what they say.
Vote Labor or vote Liberal? . . . when faced with two wholly distasteful alternatives it's not compulsory to make a choice. . . . Just say No. Refuse to vote for either of them.
