Australia now has one of our lowest birth rates on record, affecting the sustainability of our economy into the future.
Generations of reliance on immigrants to boost productivity is now showing cracks. A lot of immigrants are on welfare rather than engaged in nation building.
What to do?
Don't make the situation worse by increasing permanent immigration for starters.
If we need tradies, architects etc to build more housing, fine, but when they have finished the job they leave.
Educate more Australians better so we don't have to rely on imported skills.
Politicians of all sides are to blame for this, they all need to get a grip on long term outcomes, not political expedience.
