- Net zero migration - Ultra high quality migration, top graduates of the best universities in the world only - Re-industrialisation through robotics, AI and Nuclear energy - Increasing the birthrates through the same policies Israel and Mongolia have used plus some other policies that have proven to be successful - Building goddamn houses (minimum 3 bedrooms so people have space for kids) - Maybe build a new city too - Expand Medicare, focusing on prevention rather than cure + making physical education and fitness mandatory to graduate high school Idk that's just what I thought of off the top of my head I think this can be achieved democratically. A confident long term vision that brings in policies from both the left and right and no radical garbage

Maybe they don't want to get things done
why don't the Republicans just go ape shit and try to get everything through now until the new congress is in place

Where did it go?
🚨 BREAKING: Elon Musk’s net worth dropped $80 billion in the past 6 hours.

Are women incapable of dealing with males even when they're literal children? That's absurd
we don't talk enough about female teachers getting harassed by little boys to the point they cry. so sick of them

But do they do anything else French?
Replying to @DrewPavlou
I thought you liked it when immigrants integrated? Nothing more French than rioting!

Frustrating having to fight off seagulls from stealing my lunch, meanwhile a tourist is literally hand feeding them right next to me

They didn't have gay, trans or Mexican friends in 2024?
Young men don’t want your Nazi bullshit because they have gay and trans friends, their favorite coworker is a 50 year old Mexican guy, and they noticed that you’re scaring the hoes

Have you considered that people vote "far right" because they just want right wing policies?

This is what pro-immigration people sound like as well
Literally how you sound rn

70% of every democracy already feels like they're being ignored, you'd hope the government would at least take advantage of this to implement proper policy
Unfortunately this doesn’t work in a democracy

What has Elon Musk done wrong?

If you don't understand, then you need to adjust your worldview
I will never, ever, fucking understand how 4.2M of y'all voted "no" on a one-time tax on Billionaires.

If Australia has a worker shortage why has the unemployment rate been increasing for four straight years?

Maybe this is why they don't want people to have kids?
Young men with kids voted to the right of men without kids by 40 points. Young women with kids voted to the right of women without kids by 35 points

An Englishman is nothing more than a temporarily embarrassed Australian
Based on this, an immigration program that heavily prioritised British and American migrants would be nothing more than a democratic act reflecting the will of the people

I was just thinking yesterday about how someone made the argument that we need immigration to maintain domestic economic demand, and I was considering that they might have a point. But apparently it's not exactly having the desired effect

The consequence of parents telling their kids they can do anything they set their mind to
If America can go blue, maybe Australia can go green.

Why do people care so much about their name being mispronounced? I get called "Thom-arse" by people with accents all the time. Do you think I care in the slightest?
there’s a kid named abdifatah right now telling his substitute teacher to “just call him abdi” while abdulrahman mohamed el-sayed is on tv pronouncing every syllable of his full name. hope that kid was watching.
