The place I work already has a few foreign workers, they all seem to have some sort of "agenda".

For example in my first job there was a Pom, I even went to High school with one of his sons, but when he packed up and went back to England I asked the others at work why.

They said he only came to educate his kids for free, and yes they moved to Oz when the eldest started high school and moved back to England when the youngest finished.

Others at my current place have moved here because of the same reason, or because one of their kids or their wife is sick and they get free medical treatment in Australia, then they send most of their income back 'home'.

Yes they work hard when they are here but all things considered I don't think these sort of people provide much benefit to Australia's society.
