        Well one thing you do know we don't need to be apart of a trade agreement #tpp allows migrant workers on local projects. Not mention the plan of ripping billions out of our Australian super for US projects when this money should be used at home and with developing neighbors

        Granted @TonyAbbottMHR's comparison between immigration and low wage growth is fairly well on the mark @LaurieOakes and @lcalcutt.

        Foreign "student" is not a joint offering. It's a singular one - permanent residency. There's no way in the world Chinese and Indian students would pay huge fees for anything other than the firm expectation of gaining permanent residency. Know. Lived in China.

        Dead on. This is a crime against humanity of genocidal proportions. This is just a dumb lazy greedy corrupt Ponzi scheme. Zero agility and innovation. It's a surrender and sell off. It's self inflicted poor white trashing of the country.
