    The Aborigines have given you their land.
    They've given you their sea, their rivers, gum trees, clear sky, subterranean wealth which other countries can only dream about.
    They've also given you their blood, their labour, their intelligence; showed you a good, clean life, which you've rejected for something cluttered with disease and pollution and which you call civilization.
    They've fought wars for you. They have to put up with laws that make absolutely no sense to them -for you.
    What more do you want from them?

    And YOU? You have given them what exactly? And don't talk to me about you being a taxpayer! Your taxes go to fill up the pockets of the Adlers and Rivkins and Skases and Bonds and a whole lot of others who'd rather bank their profits in overseas "haven-banks" and bottom-of-the-harbour schemes than in Oz!

    Tell me the name of the aborigine who has asked you for something, let alone, "take, take, take" something!
