    Hergerr,
    Good points and they should be considered by the Royal Commission into population policy which would then put its recommendation to a referendum for approval.

    My issue is that our politicians are too gutless to consider what should be our policy. For instance is it to maximise the benefit for those already here or to offer the opportunity to as many from other places as possible while maintaining an 'acceptable' standard of living?

    On the 730 report tonight ex NSW premier Carr points out the obvious point that we will have to start living in high rise buildings. Ghettos and tennements to replace the traditional quater acre block with shed.How good will that be?

    If having lots of population and poor people to do menial jobs is good why isn't India rich?

    Lets stop migration until we work out our carrying capacity.
    Bacci
