Next time you hear people bang on about population size and growth, ask them: what about social inequality? #SizeDoesntMatter #auspol #fairness #ABCTop5 @FarzEdraki @WhatAustThinks @ANUcass @ANUmedia pic.twitter.com/2VHI6AR4Pl

Mass immigration is the number one inequality problem in the country causing:
- lower wages;
- higher house prices;
- crush-loading of infrastructure for working classes in the areas where migrants mostly settle.
These all hit youth and working classes hardest while a narrow set of corporate interests make rentier gains. That’s why they love it so much.
Other issues like ageing population aging can be resolved easily via productivity reform, participation measures and technology without an immigration class war.
Indeed, social inequality or class warfare is exactly why MB is against the mass immigration growth model. It’s not just us. All of the above has been described at length by the Productivity Commission which long ago concluded that all of the gains of mass immigration go to the migrants and capital and that an ageing population can never be solved by immigration.
It’s extraordinary, I know. Dr Liz Allen actually has no idea what she is talking about.
