As much as I love my hometown, Adelaide in no way carries the economic weight to justify this. These numbers are as much a reflection of low incomes and immigration-fueled demand. Neither is great for my city’s long-term future.

Tarric Brooker aka Avid Commentator 🇦🇺 Nothing that can’t continue forever will continue forever, ultimately, people can only afford so much. Houses are an unproductive asset, meaning even for investors, a return past a certain point will be mere speculation. It is tragic that so much of our national wealth is tied

Charlie Kirk Taxing remittances is literally the most important policy tool for tackling immigration. Sending money home is the biggest reason migrants come to America or anywhere in the West. By taxing it, you keep wealth in the country and get a way to curb all kinds of immigration,

Singapore’s 🇸🇬 semi-private healthcare is better than Australia’s 🇦🇺 public Medicare and costs half as much. Public healthcare, like any public service, often gets bloated, inefficient, and fraudulent. Australia’s Medicare isn’t the only alternative to the U.S. Singapore’s

We should definitely be prioritising them first when it comes to migration. They are almost the same as us in every way. Plus a lot of them are farmers, it would be a huge economic benefit.

@jhk_______ A country shouldn’t just be an economic zone. A nation is more than that. No one would ask their own children to compete with other people’s children for their affection.

AI advancement shouldn’t lead to declining morals or a dystopia to fear. Technology is a tool and is independent of good and evil. Similarly, the same applies to power. Power doesn’t corrupt; it merely reveals one’s true character. Needed moral revival can thrive alongside tech

Dr. J Walter Sparkey ☀️ India-Australia Trade Agreement, one of the worst trade deals. Not only is this a one way flow of people, we don’t even have the decency to tax remittances.

Alexandra Marshall There is no ‘magic dirt,’ countries look the way they do because of the people who live there. People from the third world do not adopt a first-world mindset just because they have moved to a first-world country.

Charlie Kirk Third world migrants are drawn and will continue to be drawn to the West as long as they can continue to access our resources ‘free’ from the government. Cutting them off goes a long way in deterring illegal immigrants and driving self-deportation.

Economically illiterate, the same thing is proposed in Australia as well. Never works anywhere; rent is the product of supply and demand for housing. Either reduce demand (cut immigration) or build more. Freezing rent just destroys any investors’ motivation to build new supply.

The Fair Work Commission has increased Australia’s national minimum wage by 3.5%. This will only mean either increased unemployment or inflation. By their own admission, this is in order to achieve a ‘real wage’ increase, which has been relatively stagnant since 2021. It is

Australia’s economy is heading into the abyss. The private sector will not be able to absorb the additional labour force created by excess immigration. The task is made impossible by: • Falling labour productivity (1% decline) • The Fair Work Commission’s decision to

We come to you because you came to us (in British Burma, Malaya, Singapore etc.)

Immigration isn’t just too high now, it’s been too high for years. Net negative immigration for 5 years is sensible. 10% of the population are on temporary visas alone. It’s made housing unaffordable, burdened states with infrastructure debt, and hurt per capita GDP by diluting

Total disaster, Australia is a sinking ship, and the government’s plan is to bring more people on board, thinking we won’t notice the water if it’s too cramped to see the floor.  GDP per capita is declining, our infrastructure can’t cope, and we are admitting 25,000 long term

We don’t have any additional natural demand for housing, it’s all coming from immigration.  Australia’s birth rate has been below replacement since 1976. The suburbs in our major cities should all look like Colonel Light Gardens in Adelaide. People with families want

Better one innocent person be condemned than 100 guilty be let free.

Hunter Ash Taxing remittances is an excellent idea. It enables host countries to offset the costs of infrastructure needed to support new migrants and can be adjusted upward to encourage self-deportation if necessary.
