- facetube 10y agoAre you referring to the families of refugees fleeing indiscriminate bombing and war?
- maxnevermind 10y agoRefugees are those who fleeing the war to neighbor regions or countries to get to safety. People who pay smugglers to get to rich countries because they can live better there are illegal economic migrants. It's not that we don't need to help but the fact that sponsoring anyone who claims he is a refugee is just plain wrong. Stop the war and spend resources more efficiently by helping rebuild the economy and not wasting it on a bunch of free riders.
- m_fayer 10y agoAs an American living between Berlin and NYC for 7 years now, here's how it feels to me: The migrants in Germany have created some tension and isolated incidents, but the political and interpersonal climate is the US is significantly more toxic. Even though per capita the US is taking way less migrants than Germany is.
