Should the Australian government accept refugees?

Answer 1

Obviously, it is all a matter of perspective.

Immigrants are mostly people who have immigrated to Australia are in seek of a better quality of life, education or due to their environmental circumstances.

There are both pros and cons to this situation. The worry of overpopulation within major migration destination cities such as Melbourne and Sydney are almost always there. Most would agree that the number of people migrating into these cities per month alone is very shocking.

However, due to this, several industries have become a steady source of income for the economy and the country.

Education is probably Australia's newest and largest economic- provider due to the great numbers of students entering the system with a mind of continuing their secondary or tertiary education.

Public transportation would most probably be coming in next.

However, due to this large flush of immigrants, many Australian Citizens are worried over the shortage of jobs (Many oversea graduates also decide to stay in Australia due to the large work and job opportunities offered here, direct from graduating) , the rise in property prices and so on and forth.

Despite this, many cannot deny the fact that human resources are very valuable, and this is probably one of the advantages that Australia would receive when accepting immigrants into the country.

In conclusion, this question is all about perspective, and like many other things, it has both consequences and benefits.
