28 million would be better spent building a new prison, which is where they'll all end up anyway.


With an education they won't need to commit crimes, they'll have jobs. 



Not that hard to figure out, is it?

For some though ...   Roll Eyes


Education is for the birds. It's bullshit for the most part.

Abos need apprentices in the trades.

$28,000,000 could far better be spent developing a sustainable industry for providing the local Abo adults with a job.




With an education, they can get better jobs.


That's a furphy ...




Nope, not at all.

An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.


That's definitely a couple of murphys at least.

Utter tripe.

It has always been the case that the first generation immigrants do the ground-work by working in factories etc, and they and their wives buy the family home and put the kids through university.

It's the same in the US with the hispanics.

That $28,000,000 could go towards buying up Northern Territory land to develop a cotton industry that could employ hundreds of Abos during the cotton picking season.  Cool

OK, not defending the spending.  It'd dumb and there are lots of things that it would be better spent on.

having said that, good luck getting into a trade if you are illiterate because you never went to school

As Stratos noted, without a basic education you cannot get an apprenticeship.  Not that there are many apprenticeships available nowadays thanks to the Employers finding it cheaper and easier to import trained labour because the government allows them to.   Roll Eyes

Someone said we could not judge a person's Aboriginality on their skin colour.  Why isn't that applied in the matter of Pascoe?  Tsk, tsk, tsk...   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes
