The migrants coming to Europe aren’t being attracted by the opportunity in the new land so much as the welfare benefits and the soft life. For the most part, they are unskilled and poorly educated.
What we’re talking about here is the migration of millions of people of different language, different race, different religion, different culture, a different mode of living. If you’re an alien and you’re 1 out of 10,000, or 1,000, or 100, you’re a curiosity, an interesting outsider. But an influx of millions of migrants is only going to destroy the old culture, and guarantee antagonism—especially when the locals have to pay for it. In many ways, what’s happening now isn’t just comparable to what happened 2,000 years ago with the migration of the Germanic northern barbarians into the Roman Empire. It’s potentially much more serious.

It makes no sense, it’s idiotic, to import—at huge expense—masses of people that have a culture of “bad luck.”
