What is the life expectantcy in Australia?
better than 81.4 years if you are white. Aboriginal people generally live up to twenty years less than non aboriginal Australians. their life expectancy is so low because Aboriginal health standards in Australia are now so bad that 45% of Aboriginal men and 34% of women die before the age of 45. 71% die before they reach the age of 65.
How much less does an aboriginal Australian live on than Australians?
In 2001, the Indigenous population of Australia was 458,500, which was 2.4% of the total population. Supposedly the Indigenous population is growing at a rate of 2% per year.
When did Aboriginal people become recognised as Australians?
One theory, "The Replacement Theory"suggests that modern humans who lived from before 150,000 years ago to possibly less than 10,000 years ago in Africa, radiated out into south east Asia and then into the rest of the world via land bridges. At least 60,000 years ago seems to be the best guess.
Did aboriginals use blue paint?
Yes, some Aboriginal Australians used blue pigments for body painting and art, although blue is less commonly found than other colors like red, yellow, and white. The blue pigments were often derived from natural sources, such as minerals like azurite or from plant materials. However, the specific use of blue paint varied among different Aboriginal groups and their cultural practices.
Why do Australians fight wars for other countries?
I know of no evidence to suggest that Australians as a people act as mercenary soldiers any more or less than mercenary soldiers from any other nation, and probably less than most. The exception is UN troops, as Australia is a member of the UN. UN troops go where they are sent - they understand that going in.

When did aboriginals get to vote?
It is a popular myth that a referendum to change the Australian Constitution in 1967 gave Aboriginals the vote. What the referendum actually did was to remove a provision from the constitution that excluded Aboriginal people from census figures which in turn were used to calculate the distribution and boundaries of electorates. This constitutional revision was required to correct the anomaly that while Aboriginal people already had the vote they were not included in the calculations used to make for electorates with approximately equal numbers of voters.Australian Aboriginal's right to vote varied from territory to territory with some (including women) having the right to vote (though rarely exercised) from the 19th century. Federal legislation in 1949 and 1962 formalized voting qualifications for Aboriginal people and with the State of Queensland introducing legislation in 1965, all Australians of Aboriginal descent then had full voting rights in all parts of the country and were able to vote in the referendum that supposedly 'gave them the vote'.See this article for full details:http://www.aec.gov.au/voting/indigenous_vote/aborigin.htmThe myth that Aborigines gained the right to vote in the 1967 referendum is perpetuated by lazy and inept journalists and to a certain extent by the consent of a ruling class that likes to pretend that Australian society is less racist than it is. It has been conjectured that a popular referendum to actually give political rights to Aboriginal people would not have passed.
What beliefs do Australians have about Christmas?
Australians believe the same as most other nations founded on Christianity. Christmas is a celebration of Christ's birth but, in many cases, this celebration has been overwhelmed by the greater call of materialism. For many, there is less focus on the Christian elements of Christmas than there is on the commercial and business side of it. Australia's multicultural nature has also contributed other customs and beliefs.

Why does people trade?
People trade internationally with other countries to import products Australians need but can't be obtained in Australia. Trading with other countries can improve relationships with another country. And some items have more quality and cost less.
Why do aborigines earn less money?
Aboriginal Australians often earn less money due to a combination of historical, social, and economic factors, including systemic discrimination, limited access to quality education and employment opportunities, and geographical isolation. Many Aboriginal communities face high levels of unemployment and underemployment, which can further perpetuate cycles of poverty. Additionally, cultural differences and a lack of recognition of Indigenous skills in mainstream job markets can contribute to lower income levels. Efforts to address these disparities are ongoing but require significant investment and commitment from both government and society.
Why is recycling a world wide concern?
Why is recycling such a concern? Recycling is a concern because Australians use 3.5 million tons of paper every year, and less then that is recycled. (That's only Australians, imagine the world!)
