Here it is the Season to be happy and to spread joy,goodwill and peace! Yet here is another year gone by with still so many that have nothing and if it wasn't for the Charities that supply Christmas dinner and gifts these lonely people would have a miserable time. I pray every year that things will improve in this country and there will be no homeless, lonely, sick people. This used to be the ,lucky country, but I seriously question that statement nowadays. As much as I don't want anyone to suffer, why is it that asylum seekers get housing pretty quickly, get allowances etc.(more than the pension) without having to contribute to our country. Why can't they work when they are released into the community. I read that there are many of these people who have been "living off" us for years and still have done nothing to contribute. Why is it that our government and some Greens pollies go out of their way to do everything for these foreigners and yet nothing much for our own. The more illegal arrivals here just makes the supply of housing further and further away from Australians who are in need. I support and admire the volunteers who give of their time to take care of the vunerable and wish and pray that SOON government will look after us all.
