If Australia doesn't have resources for immigration, then what country does?

  The US. People don't drink land and we get decade long droughts that make California's look tame by comparison. The majority of Australia has the same hospitality to human habitation as does the Sahara.

    Right, the only country that receives less rain is Antarctica. Most of the country receives less than 24" of rain in a non-drought year (of which, the last 11 have been). Many places average 4" of rain a year. Water supply is a ... challenge.

  It's the driest inhabited continent on the planet... Literally only 10% of the country is considered technically 'habitable'. That 10% is generally really nice though! (Not that there aren't also cool places to visit in the desert/outback too).
