Treasurer Jim Chalmers said ‘there are too many properties empty around Australia’ as tight supply leaves many renters struggling to find somewhere to live.
What? Who said anything about denying them the right to a home? I said Australia should grant less permanent visas not strip rights from existing permanent visa holders. I am not sure you fully understand what permanent residency is; it’s hardly creating second-class citizens. Permanent residency is a transition towards citizenship or an alternative for those who wish to maintain their other citizenship (for countries that won’t allow dual citizenship). People who have never travelled to Australia in their life can be granted permanent residency, it makes no sense for these people to immediately be granted citizenship when they don’t even know if they like Australia.
My father was a permanent resident for over 30 years before he became a citizen and I honestly don’t think he ever experienced an issue.
Oh what a cliché story… a first-generation immigrant who hates immigrants. Yeah, I’m sure your dad did things perfectly and you are even more true blue perfecter than him. Get a grip. Immigration improves lives for natural citizens. Look it up. You probably wont because you seem to have made up your mind.
Oh I’m sure you love immigrants nominally but you seem to advocate for policy that is harmful to them.
I’m not doing your homework for you. I don’t give a shit about you. I don’t know who you are, and I’m not gonna waste effort doing research to pull some random stranger out of their hypocritical bias. I’m just letting you know: you have made some beliefs on false info. If you want to stop living your life bitter about immigration, how about you learn about its positive effects? For starters, how about anyone YOU have positively affected, or the people your dad has?
I support policies that grant less temporary and permanent visas and restrict student visa and temporary graduate visa holders from applying for permanent residence. I fail to see how this ‘harms immigrants’. Adding and strengthening these caps is not harmful to immigrants. At worst, this is harmful to prospective non-existent immigrants. To study in Australia each and every student visa holder must make a declaration and provide supporting evidence that their intention is only to study and be a ‘genuine temporary entrant’.
The government already has caps on migration, but they have been actively loosening and removing caps over the past few years. I want them back, and I want them strengthened for the wellbeing of everyone in Australia, including permanent residents. People here don’t give a shit about the actual logistics and just have a hard-on for migration.

If you got ‘I hate immigrants’ from the content of my posts then you have shit reading comprehension.
You’re the one making this claim, it is your responsibility to back it up, not mine.
