Why Do People Migrate? Part 1: Facts
This article from The Economist puts the finger on the painful question of the "economic cost" of hosting refugees.
Read the article and comment on the European experiences in this respect in your journal.
You can also comment on what others have done in their own journals!
I cannot speak to the European experience personally, but I know in America people complain about "illegal immigrants stealing jobs." However, undocumented migrants in America often take the jobs that Americans do not want. The economy is boosted and necessary jobs are filled.
