Growth needs people Or at least the residents to have enough children to at least replace themselves If the people who live in Australia aren't prepared to have children Then the government will allow immigration to compensate Not many Poms or danes or swedes or yanks want to come or need to refuge here But there sure are plenty of afghanis, iraqis, iranians, syrians, lebanese, sudanese, nigerians Who want out of their own countries And will relish the opportunity to have their children in a safer place Hence multiculturalism
