Boat People

[buttonzhu]

I would imagine that the granting of visas for boat people costs Australian taxpayers from payment of benefits.

I assume that they will have very little when that arrive and the Australian taxpayers are requried to support them for considerable time!

What are the benefits paid for and the amounts paid to individual families.

That's interesting grant, I think it is not simply said benefit or not, it is political thing...

Could you explain what you mean by the above?
Sorry, but I have no idea.

Now as to citizenship they may have that, good on them, but what gives me dysentery is the fact I have paid tax's all my life and are ENTITLED to NOTHING. They on the other hand get, a house, the list is NEVER ENDING.

This really seems like a generalisation and not based on anything factual at all.
a. Who gets a free house?
b. Colour is an indication of ethnicity? We've had a Chinese population in Australia since the early 19th century!

Trust me, I did not see any Chinese waiting in the line,(don't think you ever will) as to the free house, in Perth we have had people waiting for homes west house for YEARS, people with kids, Australian people, born here. Along come people from South Africa, and they get a homes west house on the spot, as they say they have no money, who pays for the house, the tax payer. Is that not a free house.
