  This is how it should be. The rate of immigration should be proportional to the investment in housing, infrastructure, and gov services. Importing people without increasing investment or efficiency just damages the quality of life and cost of living for the existing population, but it enriches our capitalist dictators so is standard across the developed world.

  This fascist fuck won’t do it though. He’s just a criminal trying to con idiots and racists, the same as every right wing politician on Earth.

    Shhhhhhhh don’t let the plebs hear you! Else they might realise that capitalism and piling investor money into housing is actually causing high prices!

  yep he’s just pandering to the racists, but he is correct in that we shouldn’t have a growing population. It’s just that the unspoken bit is probably also “we should have more white Australian babies”.
