The $3000 Baby Bonus
April 12th 2007 05:05
I don't understand the baby bonus idea.
One moment the government was having a whinge about illegal immigrants coming into our country, next moment they were suddenly encouraging people to boost the population.
Do we want people or not? Make up your mind. Encouraging poor and dumb people to procreate by waving dollars in front of them is hardly productive in terms of evolution. If they must give a dollar incentive to encourage procreation they should at least take the 3000 dollars and put it into trust funds for the child in question instead, or something else along those lines.
The knee-jerk reaction the Government has whenever the word ‘immigration’ is mentioned smacks of the 1901 ‘White Australia’ policy. Provided the immigrants in question have bankable skills and want to make a better life for themselves in this country I see no reason not to let them, it’s a lot more than a lot of our homegrown bums have set in their sights. It just irks me that the Government can't admit that it's racist. Half the Average Janes and Joes who whinge about illegal immigrants or immigrants in general use the "Australia can't sustain much more people" argument... where's their stance when the government starts dangling the almighty dollar in front of their salivating yokel jaws like a carrot for a syphalitic mule? I'll tell you where their stance goes, it buggers off because they'll root their way to a whole litter of 3-k kids if they smell money. Australia can't sustain more people my bloody hogseye.
I still fail to see why people should be encouraged to have kids.
If anything, the government should be paying people to be sterilised - it would be an easy way to enforce quality control. Anyone who’s that poor or dumb that they’ll willingly let themselves be sterilised in exchange for $3000 probably shouldn’t be having kids. Do it. Do it now. It’s detrimental to evolution to encourage our lowest ranks to breed.
