I wasn't inclining to the fact that we should ship off the "bogans" but, just that something needs ot be done at home before we decide to 'pick-on' the outsiders. And plus, what do you mean "finding all these "bogans" will take ages"; you know apart from the dole, Centrelink has another useful feature; they actually keep records!!!
Yeah, but do uno how long it will take centerlink to find some1's record and then send the necessary stuff out - that will take centerlink a good while. From wat ive heard centerlink take ages to get throguh there work load. BUt yeah i know wat ur saying, and we should fix our "our home first", but first things first, we need to stop the cycle of people coming in to Australia.

You're an idiot. Being on newstart is heaps worse than having a job. Before the economic crisis unemployment was at 30 year lows. A nation can never have 0% unemployment.

But yet im sure some immigrants that come here go on newstart. And at this present time australia should reduce the amount of people going on the dole in the form of reducing immigration as well as other ideas other bos's have come up with.

Not within 2 years of arriving they don't. And 'some' people doing 'some' things, isn't evidence of a great cost or number.

Yeah, what we really need right now is choice and flexibility in the workplace. If only a political party had introduced something like that before this crisis started...

I'm sure 'some' immigrants go on to found million dollar corporations, generating a great deal of jobs and prosperity.

Logistically it would be almost impossible. There would be mass uprisings.

The government would probably have to build up a secret army for years before it would be feasible.

Also, where would we deport them to?
You could lynch them all.

I'm imagining some sort of sci-fi, fascist future where everything is optomized and indolence is punished with execution.

He wouldn't would he? After the next election Greens will surely hold the balance of power, do labor really want to do something that so obviously will antagonise them?

Give history a sense of irony.
