JLB1523 | Australia’s Mass Immigration – Cui Bono?

How many people do you think are being allowed to settle in Australia every year? Would you believe the figure is close to 250,000? And what effect do you think this has on things like house prices, overcrowded public transport, and so forth? And why are the vast majority of the new arrivals from Asia?

And most importantly, how does any of this help you, your family, your friends, your community or your nation? And if it doesn’t help you, who does it help?
