What is their reason for coming all this way to Australia? Why not another country on their route? What is wrong with all the other countries along the way? Why not accept a free ticket back to their country of origin? Why not apply for Australian citizenship legally?
People have always been travailing all over the planet in all kinds of ways for a long time.
On a generational level is helps keep the DNA fresh.
If illegal immigration is the real issue then the return on investment for the boat people does not add up compared to all the airplane people.
But as long as these people are still contributing to society in some way it does not appear to be a big issue.

Meanwhile, without naming names, I know a few dozen people who came over legally on a plane and a Visa, and are still here years after their Visa Expired.
Yes thanks for bringing that up, why is there no outrage, to add injury to insult many houses that are bought by foreign investors are not even lived in, not rented just left as an asset for long term gains, forcing up prices for locals.
How much money is Australia spending keeping the Navy running around on patrolling the waters for boat people?

Oddly enough since the liberal governments stance on illegal immigrants the flood of boats has all but stopped . Go figure , Australia is no longer the place that accepts cue jumpers . Big coastline and it needs to be patrolled , name a country that doesnt .
