OP mentioned a reasonable argument for the lack of supply.
A country ought to first serve its citizens before citizens of another country. Analogous to you’d first take care of your own kids before aiding others.
Yes Ukraine is in a war and one should help, but you should help yourself first so you can help others.
- gmerc 3y agoLet’s jump to the root cause right there - the problem is Russia. Crushing that problem will free up plenty of space and make the energy and food shortages world wide normalize. Screaming at refugees is a diversion, especially since they rarely compete in the normal housing market in most countries.
- true_religion 3y agoYou’re right but the fact that poverty exists in a country has never been used as an excuse to turn away refugees who might otherwise die in a war. We tackle difficult problems simultaneously, not in sequence.
