You simply can't create facilities for 10,000 people out of thin air.
antycbr did suggest FIFO previously - 4 weeks work, 2 weeks quarantine, 6 weeks off. economically the suggestion was to save on police, contractors (hotel, cleaners, transport) could help fund the capacity + amenities (transport, cleaners, security) - I think antycbr suggested $2-3 billion (inclusive of contribution from States) as feasibleYou simply can't create facilities for 10,000 people out of thin air.
And anything remote will need FIFO workers who will return to the same cities (let alone the dangers of having FIFO workers from a high risk location on the same flight).
And for those who've previously mentioned Christmas Island.
It's currently being used for other purposes (and at best might house 500 ppl in quarantine anyway)

What does 'GST on up' mean?
I only ask because you seem a stickler for facts - checking up on others etc and I'd like to know how you know that 'all' of the people and business concerned paid tax. If it wasn't true, or a bit of hyperbole its OK to say so,
That is so unbelievably sad.Don’t read this article if you have high blood pressure!
Disgusting behaviour from WA Health and the WA Government, locking people in rooms for 7 hours with no food, water. Not answering phone calls for 2.5 hours, shutting their office for a week and not assisting people trapped in knee jerk border decisions when they weren’t even travelling from a hot spot. Unbelievable.

There are so many similar stories, likely thousands of them, all around the world. It might take months, maybe years, but a lot of mental health damage has been inflicted but right now the focus is on the physical. It's easier to see.
Most definitely, I suppose in some places justified. The risk/response balance in this particular case is far out of kilter with reality.
Ha ha. A complete non sequitur on my query of your claim that "they [in the context of the conversation] all pay tax". Still unanswered - what's the basis for your claim that:
With the emphasis on "all". To affirm, I think you'd need to know the personal circumstances of all those concerned, otherwise its just an assumption. Again, I only persevere because you have frequently 'demanded' similar responses off others.
Oh, and re GST. "So you do not know what GST is?" Another non sequitur. You didn't mention GST, so the query of whether I know what GST is, is a deflecting red herring. Gosh, I even know what the WET tax is, as well as Payroll tax
"There are a raft of taxes that individuals and companies may need to pay. GST is one aimed at ensuring that all pay tax." My home business, although trading, does not pay or charge GST, at least for the past 2 years. Go figure. I'm pretty sure its not the only one.
There's no way you can say for sure that they "all" paid tax without knowing the tax circumstances of them all. It was an assumption stated as a fact.
The comments really sums things up nicely on the West, also gives you a pretty good indication on the very likely outcome of their state election - "All hail St Mark, our hero".Don’t read this article if you have high blood pressure!

Looked at from a practical point of view. Melbourne airport has lots of open ground around it. Queensland (and other States) has a large number of unused dongas as many of the projects have moved from construction to production.You simply can't create facilities for 10,000 people out of thin air.
