In my humble opinion I do not think the answer to Aboriginal disadvantage is political or bureaucratic. We've tried that thousand ways till Sunday and nothing has worked.

The only solution that could possibly have any chance that success is cultural. I do think that we had come a way in that regard but have now gone backwards because of race baiting and powermongering. The stupid referendum has caused nothing but further division.

It will take all of the communities that make up this country, including the indigenous, to effect a substantive change in attitude. Bloated bureaucracies, intersectionality and victim culture is just not going to work in that regard.

Unfortunately the current attitudes and agendas are so firmly entrenched that I think it would take generations to make that sort of change.

For instance people like [USER=4891]@IFocus[/USER] running around calling everybody racists isn't going to help, is it.... Except to highlight how ridiculously divisive the leftist attitude to these things are.

Somehow, everybody has to foster some goodwill towards each other otherwise this is just going to carry on ad infinitum with no result.
