Your arguments are fundamentally flawed. For instance, you state that the Coalition has gotten popular on a platform of two phrases. In response to this I suppose your darling leader's amazing leadership qualities have nothing to do with the popularity of an alternative? Further, the Coalition has been popular since way before both of these issues. And just to drive the point home a little further, the Federal Labor party has delivered a surplus exactly once in it's history. It's little wonder why so many people support a coalition who doesn't piss money up against the wall year in, and year out. Further, Australia has an immigration system in place which is world class. If people wish to arrive on boats and attempt to illegally enter th country then they will be processed accordingly. Noone is suggesting that genuinse refuges won't enter Australia. You are advancing the notion that we simply open the top end and let anybody who wants to come into Australia because at present asylum seekers represent a tiny portion of entrants. This is a truly dangerous precendent to set. With that said, I don't see us agreeing on any of these points, but I respect your right to hold your opinion, as your vote is worth exactly the same as mine.
