What a really odd logic. So then let's bring immigration down to 0%. Woohoo! Now you still got to "replace 2% of infrastructure every year" with 0% more revenue. How's that working out for you?

You argue 0 immigration -> 2% infra costs You argue 1% immigration -> 3% infra costs but also 1% more revenue to use for infra costs

I fail to see your issue

Where is immigration brought up? Poster is taking about rate of population growth which includes all sources of population.
Population growth in Australia is largely immigration-driven.
