      @@augustusomega4708 Is every Arab a millionaire in the rest of the Arab world? If you want to talk about the divide between rich and poor check it out. Nothing shared to be seen. Enough to disgust a capitalist. What losses do the taxpayers cover for the resources industry? And subsidies according to the AI are only $11.1 billion pa including fuel subsidies for farmers and other misc random fuel subsidies for people, not FF companies. That compared to the combined contribution to the economy of agriculture and resources of hundreds of billions of dollars annually. Remove the fuel subsidies and the FF industry wouldn't even break stride. Remove them from renewables cartels and they would crash in a heap.

    Remember, lots of people were told to leave Australia during the pandemic. Rent and real estate prices are under investigation in the US due to companies like RealPage, where it’s alleged that price increases were coordinated in areas where landlords or agents were using RealPage to set market valuations, based on their algorithm.

      Migration in Australia through the skills system means that migrants are assigned to communities and regions of the country where workers are needed. Thousands of migrants are not moving into Western Sydney.

But are you suggesting it's xenophobic to talk about immigration? I don't think you're listening to what's happening. No one is talking about migrants...they're not saying migrants are the problem. If they came out and said 'migrants are causing problems'- that would be xenophobic. They say 'migration levels' are an issue because we're not keeping up with housing or infrastructure demands. Are you able to tell the difference? Where has the dog whistle been in context to this?
