There has been a generation of social experiment where the indiginous Australians were ceded ownership of much of Australia's richest lands on the understanding that this ownership would bring on a sense of self-worth and dignity.

Some have gone down the road of educating the young ones to be strong in the aboriginal and wider communities.

Some have chosen a more traditional lifestyle of abuse, drink and violence, led by tribal elders who play the same tribal game we see in Somalia, Iraq, west Africa and Asia. This tribalism is the root of the Tongs, the Yakusa and the colour gangs now spread from the USA throughout the western world.

Children are being allowed to run through the bush as in "Lord of the Flies" without discipline (often to escape the elders) and are reaching the age where their own violence and antisocial activities are bringing them before the courts without the ability to read and speak English. These children have no skills which are useful in employment (unless your name is Fagin) and of late are roaming in gangs through the suburbs making mischief.

"This enlightened day and age" doesn't exist for many of these people and the Feds have taken a tough decision. Damned if you do and damned if you don't.

This modern world is tough on well educated, focussed mainstreamers. It must be hell for those who have no viable options but to sit in a corner, drink and fornicate away their welfare money.
