Your opinion Australia DOES have a labour shortage, Is immigration the real answer? Now im all in favour of a steady flow of immigration. its perfectly fine. However i dont think importing workers from other countrys is the best solution. I work at retail over say a apprentice, you know why? 4 years apprentice=300 a week, 40+ hour weeks, and when you finish that your on about 500 a week. Already working at BWS 430 a week for "under 21 age" 4 years i could EASILY become 2IC, which is roughly 500+ a week And we have trouble with housing already, with thousands waiting for a home, what will that be like when 1000 more people come over and need housing? The solution is to pay more in the field where you lack workers dammit. |

I dont want to have to pay extra rent because the government is both- Not giving ENOUGH incentive for businesses to hire apprentice/pay them something decent. Dont open up enough land blocks for residents/REFUSE to build upways not encouraging people to live in the shit-hole country towns of W.A. |

the problem with the migrants is they simply come in and collect welfare whilst doing illegal cash jobs. I know since im in regular contact with these sorts. Another issue is a significant number of our home grown workforce choose to move overseas due to the lack of prospects here in the professional fields and also the tax conditions here, I am refereing to a paper by the Australian Chartered Accountants which concluded that in the end of the day we are taxed around the sum of 70% of our income including all sorts of hidden taxes that most people are unaware of. |

Australia IS one of the most taxed countrys in the world, guess its one of the things we have to put up with being such a highly developed country in such a large space, with such little population on the world scale. |
