I mean, this sounds pretty immigrant-phobic to me. When you picture "war refugees" do you only think of people who cannot get a job? There are doctors and software engineers fleeing war right now too.
UK unemployment rate is only 4%. That's considered "full employment" in the US. It seems like you could use the extra workers.
- garethrowlands 5y agoWe have a severe shortage or workers. We could definitely use them. They might have to accept poor housing but that's due to housing policy.
- stjohnswarts 5y agoThe US could use them too and we have a LOT more open space and dying towns. Yet those same towns think they're better off being isolationist and pro-Trump (aka anti immigration). Yet US politicians are mum. We could take in 500,000 (probably a few million) and not bat an eye, but I doubt it will happen.
