Explaining 2015 (Again)

“The mistake was not to have paid attention to create an environment where people can stay in their own country.”

-- Chancellor Merkel at Davos, explaining how Germany screwed up in 2015 with refugees

At the heart of this discussion, if you think about it long enough....you'd have to raise the economy, the living standards, the infrastructure, and the educational level of a number of third-world countries.  Who pays for that?  Well....yeah, you might want to think about that for a while.

The fact that some of these countries had plenty of money to establish this landscape, and corruption simply became overwhelming?  Merkel's solution to corruption?  It's not exactly apparent.
