Even caring for a second about the middle class youth of our country is dog whistling. Underemployment, non existent wage growth and imported temporary workers are a totally discussion about immigration policy levers than infrastructure HTH. Also again, these aren't problems with immigration as much as wealth transfer policies, casualisation, worker disempowerement and union busting. Immigration creates growth, who benefits from that growth is based on government policy not immigration itself. 457 visas are total dogshit though and should have been run out of town with pitchforks years ago, so I guess I agree with you there. Identifying something that sounds like a lovely dogwhistle isn't actually an argument in favor of the opposite. I honestly don't know what Australia should be doing population wise, whether we should be looking to grow, maintain or shrink. Placing blame with immigration and thus immigrants for the issues we have in this country is total bullshit though and I'm mad at that.

JBP posted:Fair enough but I don't think simply saying immigration is a dogwhistle in the context of that article is fair. I don't think the word requires a massive caveat around it without being automatically a dogwhistle. Wait it’s not a dog whistle because you think it’s about Chinese and Indians not muslims?

tithin posted:This article pisses me off for a number of reasons. Yeah, having gone through the loan paperwork recently I'm just facepalming reading this. We were asked about our incomes and expenditures and we had to get back to them because we didn't have exact numbers. Also why did she need 13 houses exactly? Like at what point do you go "aw yeah, I need me another house mayte" and think 13 was a reasonable number?

Periphery posted:Hmm, yes just let me check... I live near places that are poorly serviced by everything like Pt Cook, this includes road, rail and services. They require basic service roads that don't exist. The rest of my posts are about general infrastructure so you're being disingenuous and periphery was just keen to post his equivalent of Gob bursting in doing a chicken noise.

I said anyone that would actually interpret this (or something about women's day, depressed wages, whatever) in a way that it could demonise people would be to demonise the ones most popularly construed as jamming up roads and trains.

I live next to a rail line with like 8 services that is two stops from the city and it won't cope with the 10,000 people that will move to Footscray in the next year or so without more ways to distribute traffic or double the rail services. That would be a train roughly every minute at 8am.
