Either way... Aboriginals are now living in one of the most wealthiest countries in the world, with the highest minimum wage in the world, which has an extremely generous welfare system.

I may be "hypothesizing on whatevers", but lets face it, it could have turned out a lot worse than it currently is.... right?

G,day mate
ahh finally we agree on a matter
yep the tribes would have been up s**t creek if germany or spain had taken over
come to think of it history records that some of the tribes were consumers of human flesh
hells gate south of cooktown comes to mind they liked the taste of the yellow man more than the white
two tribes in south aussie one just south of the murray mouth and another over on the bight
spears with double barbs pointing both ways tribes attacking and wiping out homesteads and or killing of all the stock milking cow horses and oxen to starve out the settlers
heck they even did it to their own and half the blacks are as white as you and me
when cook landed the first bloke ashore was speared to death. you seen the painting of cook holding out his hand while the sailors are kneeling and raising their rifles
yep they took first blood
besides who really gives a fig bloody newton about some silly little doll that was prob made in plant thirteen and a half in quonddong province china
