Abstract

[Extract] It is a melancholy object to those, who walk through Sydney or Melbourne, or travel in the regional towns such as Brisbane or Perth, when they see the cafés, the op-shops and the university campuses crowded with Arts graduates, all in rags, and importuning every passer-by for a job. These young women and often men, instead of being able to work for their honest livelihood, are forced to employ all their time in scrolling and begging sustenance from their helpless parents, who either mortgage their Harbourside mansions for their children’s want of work, leave their dear native state to reside in the Sunshine Coast, or, for want of sufficient capital, force their children into the shameful employ of the public sector.
