It really is about time the Australian Government stopped throwing away taxpayers money on aiding every Tom Dick and Harry that has a problem being trapped overseas due to some conflict or whatever. That’s what insurance is for. Similar to travel insurance, people should have to take out insurance to cover themselves for such events, if they go to war torn countries, or have the misfortune for unseen events to occur while their holidaying around the world. Multiculturalism, what a wonderful thing, take the best country that every existed in the history of the world, AUSTRALIA, and drag it down to TO A THIRD WORLD COUNTY STATUS. This is yet another of the many reasons why Australians can’t walk into a Hospital and receive care, are becoming homeless and living rough, can’t put the appropriate healthy meals on the table for themselves and their children as has been done since the days of early settlement. It way over time that the Australian Government looked after the Australian Citizens and their problems instead of donating taxpayers money to every conflict throughout the globe while the Australian Standard of Living drops to below zero. This constant destruction of money on Idiotic Referendums, Hotel like Accommodation for Criminals and accommodation and support for so-call refugees which I refer to as Invaders, has to stop. The ANZAC must be rolling in their graves. JACKA.
