Crazy Refugee Idea

 I sat and watched a N-TV update report today....on migrants trying to reach Germany.  

Up in North Rhineland-Westphalia (NRW) (far NW of Germany), they have an FDP politician in charge of the state Integration Ministry.....Joachim Stamp.  He gave an interview today.

So he is suggesting a pretty wild idea.  He says the way to stop all this refugee action, with thousands trying to enter Germany....is to get 'outsiders' interested in 'helping' Germany.

How?

He envisions going to three countries that want EU membership (Ukraine, Georgia, and Moldovia).....making a deal that they would readily accept the refugee crowd and thus get membership in the EU.  

I paused there.....pondering over this idea.

If you approached most folks in Georgia, Moldovia, and Ukraine.....they'd tell their economic situation is crappy, and there's no jobs for 100k refugees coming into any of the three.

Then if you turned to the refugee crowd....they'd tell you that they don't want Georgia, Moldovia, or the Ukraine.....they want Germany.

The only way to interest the three countries or the refugees?  You'd have to throw a bunch of Euro at the group, and I'm not talking about a lousy billion Euro a year.  

But maybe Moldovia would look at this.....two billion Euro in the pot....half to finance just 100k refugees in some permanent camp, and the rest as simple 'bribe-money' for the politicians of Moldovia.

Heck, maybe even North Korea would apply for EU membership....if you were paying countries a billion Euro a year.  

After a while, I considered the whole suggestion as a pretty wild 'farce' and one of the more crazy ideas I've heard in 2021.
