What a ridiculous thing to say. Those 11,000 rich migrants do not need taxpayer assistance, they fund themselves and in doing so push money through the economy and in a lot of cases no doubt provide employment to many Australians through the businesses they bring or build here.

The 13,000 asylum seekers on the other hand rely almost entirely on taxpayer handouts and do bugger all to improve the country, indeed in many cases they do a lot of harm to the country - just look at what's going on in Melbourne and where all the people convicted of terrorism related offenses originated.
