The disaster of **legal** immigration for australia

And add to these astonishing fractions of 1/6  and  ⅓  the native born offspring birthed by them you get an even greater number.

Incredible statistic from below: nearly 1/3 of Australia's residents are foreign born (and I think those are primarily from non-white societies).  No coherent civilization can survive that.

In the U.S., it's about 1/6, which is disruptive enough.

Australia is a warning to the world on immigration: fixing illegal immigration simply isn't enough. 

 Back in 2013, under heavy public pressure, the government brought in 'Operation Sovereign Borders', a plan to stop the boats. It was hugely successful and we effectively ended illegal migrant maritime arrivals. The only problem was that while this was happening, the government was also heavily ramping up legal immigration without telling anyone. 

 Since then, our immigration numbers have exploded out of control. 

 Last year we brought in 737,000 migrants. 1 in 22 people in the country right now arrived in just the last 3 years. 

 Today nearly one third of the country is foreign born. Our major cities are nearly 50% foreign born. Towns and cities are changing rapidly. Schools and hospitals overcrowded, traffic is increasingly horrendous. 

 And legal immigration isn't just from 'skilled immigration'. Last year, only 13% of migrants were on skilled visas, with 'skilled' meaning everything from dancers to hairdressers. The system is farcical. 

 The rest? Family visas, temporary workers and international students. 

 Roughly 1 in 27 people (1.1 million) in the country right now is an international student. This has decimated rents and housing costs - hurting the living standards of the young and working class the most. 

 Out of those 1.1 million, over 400,000 study at 'training colleges', which are, in effect, just legal human traffic institutions. Giving work access and pathways to residency to migrants for as low as $12,000 for courses in 'business administration.' 

 It's worth noting here how broken the student system is: foreign students can buy Australian houses. 

 In many ways, Australia didn't end illegal immigration, we just made it legal. 

 And we're paying for it. 

 Today, Australian real wages are at 2009 levels, we have some of the most expensive house prices in the world, rents are astronomically high, our fertility rate is plummeting, and families are sleeping in cars. These are all linked. 

 The 'lucky country' we grew up in no longer exists. 

 If you speak out about it, the state-funded national broadcaster will come after you. Business councils and property lobbyists pour exorbitant amounts of money into pro-immigration propaganda and think tanks. Our major news platform own extensive real estate interests. This is the oligarchy in action. 

 Even our right leaning political parties fear alienating legal migrant votes, and so do not speak out about it. Our 'nationalist' party has elements within it that are pro-mass migration. Nevertheless, research shows that new migrants disproportionately vote left. 

 In many ways our situation is better than other countries. In other ways, it's much worse. Mass deportations doesn't really work when it comes to legal migration. 

 The Australian people can come back from this, but it's going to be a multi-decade fight to fix the mess that governments, businesses, and other special interest groups have created. 

 Right now Australia is at breaking point. 

 Take this as a warning: don't just fix illegal immigration and ignore legal immigration. Legal immigration can be just as destructive, if not more so. Trust us.
