that the current numbers will become thousands a week - how do you know that?

if we transport them from indonesia there will be no need for people smugglers - it would stop the boats before they start and cut out the illegal trade. once the government has control of the situation, it will be much easier to deal with

Uh oh, here's another example of the lal la green theoretical utopia, everyone live happily ever after theory on how to solve our problems.

Of course the current numbers will increase dramatically. People will be killing each other trying to get on the Australian boats. Oh and where do we stop? We start picking up refguee claimants from Indonesia, what do we do when they start arriving from further afar due to our open door policy? You are in fairy land if you do not think this would happen. Ask the Canadians about those who travel long and far.

SImply a stupid idea and one best left in the green theoretical basket.
