One of the "borderless" activist's arguments I don't get at all. Do they really need hundreds of thousands of young future "worker" immigrants? Yes, I know their birth rate is low - but even so, in many places they have something like a 50+% youth unemployment. And - the automatization is for real, which means numbers of jobs will remain stagnant.

From a humanitarian point of view, a few million "refugees" are just a drop in the bucket for their home countries. No problems will be solved, in any real sense.

Maybe politicians want their populations to be preoccupied with immigrants - and forget about debt, unemployment and a declining standard of living? Maybe those pols are not crazy - just cynical?
