Depends if we call them migration agents or not. If you have money it is far easier and safer to arrive in business class and have a team of lawyers than to risk everything in a rickety boat.

Bayview - I'm not going to quote as it will just end up as a massive post that will be hard to read. I can see some of what you are saying (particularly in your last post). I used to do a lot of work for residential developers but that work has dried up - now it is state and local government...

I've been spending too much time on the central coast :D I think everyone is a big fat racist now... I don't want any religious beliefs forced on to me. This is a secular society.
