I don't think we need a child limit policy, but we don't need to "encourage" people to have babies with baby bonuses and paid maternity leave. We don't need for (now past) government politicians telling us to have one for Dad, one for Mum and one for the country. If one couple doesn't want kids and another wants 4 - fine.

Immigration - Australia should limit immigration and bring in people for jobs we need people for. Pick and choose the people we want to bring in. Australians have restrictions just to get a work visa for even the UK - there is usually an age limit too. Yet certain people berate Australia for not opening the floodgates.
