Well, Merkel took in 1M of (young) refugees and took flak from the same people that are now complaining about recession. As we speak there are millions of people wanting (hell, willing to pay hundreds of euros to smugglers) to be European consumers, younger than the Euro average (I don't have hard numbers on this, but I would be real money), but they are driven away and left for dead in dinghyes. There's more than one way to grow the population.
