Open borders to Western Europe. Mass migration for the better wage. Basically selling our productive (both in term of jobs and kids) people for euromoneys.
Impact is our older generation is fucked because they won't get reasonable pensions. Businesses are having hard time to find people for local wages. Hard to compete on price to western europe when it's right next door. Inflation is crazy to catch up with Western salaries and pricing. Yet we don't have manufacturing and R&D base to compete on all but price. It's slowly coming up (e.g. software is doing great), but prices/wages are raising quicker than that. Hopefully we'll squeeze through to have enough to compete on by the time we're no longer price competitive.
TL;DR: fun times
- jotm 8y agoHaha, downvoted because no one in the West gives a flying fuck about people leaving developing countries and the impact on those economies. They do care about dem too many immigrants though. It's puzzling.
- mantas 8y agoWest cares about individuals, not about communities or nations or states. You see crying baby - you help. You see someone hardly making a living - you invite them and pay more. Who gives a fuck about how it affects the whole society.
