At least in this country, the impact on the average person is considered, as well as the environment
Net Overseas Migration running at 3-4 Times traditionally ‘average levels’ , with the bulk of said migrants crowding into already overcrowded and under-supported Capital cities, considers no such thing.

Infrastructure cannot keep up, wage growth is depressed, public services are further overcrowded the Environment has to support far denser concentrations of people; I can go on.

Even the infrastructure that ultimately is built comes up short, as it is Years later than required. Then ultimately we pay through the nose for it to be built (for various reasons that are mostly related to the above), then pay through the nose to use it once it’s finished!

If the impact on people and the Environment were a consideration, far more manageable levels of population growth should be the starting point.
