Germany: Migrant Crisis Delusions

[Scataphagos]

Authored by Vijeta Uniyal via The Gatestone Institute,

• A report commissioned by the German government found that newly-arrived asylum seekers were behind more than 90% percent of the increase in violent crimes in the state of Lower Saxony.
  
  
• As of December 2017, an estimated 600,000 able-bodied asylum seekers in Germany were on the welfare dole, according to Die Welt. "More than half of the able-bodied unemployment benefit receivers at present are of foreign descent," wrote Der Spiegel on April 10, 2018.
  
  
• Meanwhile, poverty in Germany, especially among elderly pensioners, has reached a historic high.

Instead of lining up to join the German workforce, as the political elite and most of the media were asking us to believe, these young immigrant men, in the hundreds of thousands, took refuge in the Germany's generous welfare system.

I was following the "reported polls" before the German election... looked like Merkel was in danger of being outsted. Yet, she got reelected. What a shame. Just goes to show the degree to which the people really are sheeple.

Instead of being granted another term of governance, she righteously should be facing trial for treason.

Liberal ideologies destroy societies under unrealistic poorly planned social schemes, attempted by total inept liberal politicians on the pretense of 'doing social good'. Venezuela is the latest casualty of this fact.

Sometimes it is more a matter of blind greed among the ruling class. Africa, for example.

You do have examples of successful liberal countries, Scandinavia for example. But that success, apart from the good fortune to have massive oil reserves, depends heavily upon a homogeneous society with deeply shared values. Mass migrations, the left's newest toy, destroys the very elements that are essential to a successful liberal country.

Yea, those liberals caring about the refugees, the poor, the desperate - like it says in the bible.

But what do liberals know, let red state moochers drowning in meth without jobs and poor social conditions lecture Germany which is one of the fastest growing and prosperous economies in the world.

Oh and the news is fake, as expected from Zero Hedge.

Agreed. I would add that the 'quality' of this migration makes a total difference.
