Having said this, I think we must focus now on how to make the best of what is happening and that is to find a short term as well as a long term solution for what is going on regarding the massive immigration that will definitely change the whole economic, social and political system of Europe. Life in Europe is completely changing....
You presented a good point Babbler. Meaning the loan shark system of the European economy saw the potential of squeezing the last drop of blood from Greece and so the membership in the union. Heck didn't they know that there is no more blood to be squeezed? Now that it has completely collapse, I mean economically, where is their profit coming from? Or they simply written off those loans?
Very irresponsible kind of decision making, isn't it?
One of the downside of overextending help is this. It will create a shift on the social status. It levels down and to the dismay of those that are negatively affected. A country can only sustain what it can afford. If these people wont become a productive contributor to the society then of course, the supply has to come from some place. Then policies are created to accommodate the needs of these new members of the society.
Well Bab, what is a little offish is the fact that they offered to build Mosque for them to worship in Europe but they will never accept any of these refugees. The answer posted from the previous pages, that of course, there is no need for them to go there, they are already muslims. That is coming from the idea that if the intention of the majority of these migrants is to caliphate the world. It is confirmed by almost everyone including the report of WSJ that these people are not refugees at all. They are posing as Syrians just to get accepted.
I am so sad to hear about this Jono. It doesn't look right, does it? I mean who on earth would give more benefits to people that has not even worked there and not make it available for those that lived all their lives? This would definitely spark ill feelings to the government as well as the newcomers.
Now leaders or the government heads how can they justify this kind of policy? In the States, they used to provide all health benefits and free education, now it is all cut off. But I am talking about the illegal migrants. I think it is a very different situation.
Bab you'd be surprised how an ordinary minds like us can coin up the most effective solution sometimes. Those politicians are buried with so many complex challenges that is going through their minds and they are short sighted as to what is available for them.
Having said that, Capri, mentioned that camps should be built from the NA regions and the rich oil arab countries can finance it.
This is amazing Obs. I also watched the news on this post about how Denmark had to redesign or change their current welfare system just to discourage these refugees. Now this creates negative impact on the citizens who deserve to get their original full benefit doesn't it?
This is crazy. But because they pass as refugees, so they are entitled to all these benefits? Incredibly disturbing.
To live a life in fear is not right. Yet, these happenings drive an ordinary person that has always lived in peace to be scared. I don't understand why they come as though they want to impose their ways of life and culture to the host countries? How is it possible that a group of foreigners would be allowed to march and create such a chaos amongst the local? It is madness indeed and the only cure is to create balance where peach prevail on both sides.
Now that is a good question and perhaps if there is enough manpower to up the number of force there. She mentioned that the police are now 24/7 on duty. I am curious to find out how they cope with all the steady increase of need for accommodation vis a vis, food, shelter, clothing, etc.
Looking at the development, there is no doubt it will happen. The question is, is there anything you can do at the moment to at least curb this madness? I can imagine all the burdens upon you this unprecedented wave.
EQ this is a serious undertaking. I hope your country is prepared for all these expenses to be incurred and that your budget is not going to clash with your economic stability.
In the states about three years ago, we had so much problems on balancing our budget and they incurred furlough to almost all government employees to find a way to correct the government's over spending.
Like others have already expressed, the whole of Europe is going through the same thing it is a very interesting story to keep as it unfolds everyday. May you hold your strength and peace. Good luck.
I am sure, unless there is an available manpower to impose the closure, like one of the poster above us, they will find a way to get through.
If that is the case it is a very futile struggle. Now if Germany is sending back to you as you said, when did Merkel start this? I understand that she is in favor of accommodating all of them?
EQ, so you guys are in a very dark confusion. The bureaucrats penalizes you if you let them in, yet the politicians like Merkel, gives you a bad time if you do. That is a conflict that doesn't seem to get resolved no matter what you do. Question is, who holds more control to you guys, the bureaucrats? or the politicians.
In the meantine Capri, on the 6th page of WSJ is a picture of a woman, and the title of the story is that: "Migrants pose as Syrians to open doors".
This is truly bad. It confirms that all of these migrants are not asylum seekers but are now posing as Syrians to better their chance of being accepted as a refugee.
Europe is in great trouble and there should be a system where it eliminated the manipulation of the status to truly give aid and assistance to those who are displaced in the conflict.
Germany: Sympathetic to all Syrian Refugees
