Study: Border Controls Cheaper Than Mass Immigration

by Nick Hallett

Restoring full passport and security checks between European Union (EU) nations would be more cost effective than allowing the migrant crisis to continue indefinitely, a German economic institute has said.

Stop right there.

Isn’t that an excellent argument for the dissolution of the European Union itself?

The Munich-based Ifo institute said the reinstating border controls could reduce the EU’s economic output by 0.19 to 0.47 per cent each year, equivalent to €26.65 to €65.8 billion.

However, Gabriel Felbermayr, head of Ifo, said that these costs would be “just a small part of the amount that would be caused by uncontrolled mass immigration.”

One of the countries that has been worst affected by the ongoing migrant crisis is Sweden, which will likely need to spend around 600 billion kroner to fund last year’s immigration levels.

Stockholm University Associate Professor Jan Tullberg factored in the costs of extra policing and higher benefits along with the immediate costs of receiving so many migrants, and found that the Swedish state will have to spend some 580 billion kroner (£48.3 billion) on these new Swedes from now until the time they either leave the country or die.

Europeans are on a cusp.

A cusp of doom.  On the cusp of whether or not their culture will survive an inundation by other cultures who will 1) not assimilate and 2) have radically different values.

Values.

On that same note, in the US, from Pew Research Center polls taken March 17th – 27th of this year:

DO YOU SUPPORT BUILDING A WALL ALONG THE ENTIRE BORDER WITH MEXICO?
Overall:
OPPOSE THE WALL      62%
FAVOR THE WALL          34%

Then:

Republicans:
FAVOR THE WALL          63%
OPPOSE THE WALL      33%

Then:

Demorats:
OPPOSE THE WALL      84%
FAVOR THE WALL          13%

A wall on our border with Mexico would save hundreds of lives, perhaps even thousands of lives, here in the US and Mexico.

It would save lives in the US by keeping illegals from murdering lawful American citizens.

It would save lives in Mexico by keeping coyotes from taking advantage of those persons crossing who are murdered and, by those attempting to cross who are unprepared.

That doesn’t even take into account the drug trafficking. And the thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands of American lives ruined because of methamphetamine, cocaine and heroin manufactured and then transported by the Mexican cartels in to the US.

Israel built the wall between itself and the “Palestinian Authority” and it works.

But now we’re not much interested in that?

Can we learn from Europe?

Will we learn from Europe?

Norway & Sweden to collapse under migrants?

Sweden BurningI already wrote about Norway here, when that nation decided to disarm its law enforcement officers recently.  The decision couldn’t have been made at a worse time.

It turns out that Norway — and Sweden too — is more concerned with being besieged by immigrants than it let on, purposely hiding various inconvenient facts from its lawful citizens.

First, from ZeroHedge.com:

Norway Warns Sweden Will Collapse, PM Will Defy Geneva Convention To Protect Border

by Tyler Durden

We’ve spent quite a bit of time documenting the country’s trials and travails over the course of the last 12 months during which time Sweden has taken on more than 160,000 asylum seekers.

Let’s stop for a moment to examine some facts.  The third largest in Europe, Sweden is a country of 174,000 square miles, about the size of California, with a population of almost 10 million.  In contrast, California has a population of 39 million, and New York City has a population of 8.5 million people.  Sweden has a population density of 54 inhabitants per square mile.  The illegal invader increase to Sweden is about 1.6%.

Last month, on the heels of reports from Germany that men of “Arab and North African” origin assaulted women in central Cologne during New Year’s Eve celebrations, Swedish media alleged that police orchestrated a massive coverup designed to keep a string of similar attacks that allegedly occurred at a youth festival in Stockholm’s Kungsträdgården last August from seeing the light of day.

Meanwhile, a 22-year-old refugee center worker was stabbed to death by a Somali migrant at a shelter for asylum seekers and at the Stockholm train station, “gangs” of Moroccan migrant children reportedly spend their days attacking security personnel and accosting women.

What commonality is being tacitly unmentioned?  Yes, the fact that these are all Muslims involved.

At the risk of gleeful schadenfreude (for obvious Obama-instigated reasons), I submit that what is written next was completely foreseeable — and indeed I have been writing about it for years now — as Islam brings with its staunch adherents aspects that are entirely unworkable in civilized Western cultures.

Sweden plans to deport some 80,000 of the refugees this year but according to Norwegian PM Erna Solberg, it may be too little too late to keep the country from collapsing. So concerned is Solberg that she’s now crafted an emergency law that will allow Norway to refuse asylum seekers at the border in the event “it all breaks down” in Sweden.

This borders on heresy for Europeans GOWPs — Guilty Overeducated White Persons.

Here’s how the proposal is being presented by the anti-immigration Swedish online magazine Fria Tider: “Norway is now preparing to denounce the Geneva Convention and to secure the border with Sweden by force – without letting people apply for asylum.”

Is this overstated, or is the foundering of Europe truly possible?

Yes, “worst case scenarios,” like what Sweden’s Foreign Minister Margot Wallström described last October when she said “most people feel that we cannot maintain a system where perhaps 190,000 people will arrive every year – in the long run, our system will collapse.” 

Collapse.  Not unlike the Cloward-Piven Strategy, defined as:

The strategy of forcing political change through orchestrated crisis. The “Cloward-Piven Strategy” seeks to hasten the fall of capitalism by overloading the government bureaucracy with a flood of impossible demands, thus pushing society into crisis and economic collapse.

Yes, the situation is that serious.  Yes, European countries are that stressed.  Yes, they could collapse and implode.

And with that, guess what?

Yes.  Mr Obama has already accepted roughly 10,000 Syrian and related refugees and buried them around the nation.  Ask Texas if they’ve seen Syrian refugees.  But wait; Mr Obama wants the US to accept another 100,000 in order to accept its “fair share.”

From the WashingtonExaminer.com:

White House wants increase of Syrian refugees

by Paul Bedard

The White House is quietly pushing for an increase in refugees from Syria, despite new concerns raised by state and county officials that federal help is often missing when they arrive.

President Obama’s assistant for immigration policy told a task force set up by the National Association of Counties that the U.S. is eyeing a bigger role to help alleviate the growing crisis.

Because that is working out so well for Europe.

Syrian Refugees to USHere are where the immigrants are aimed in each state.

In the meantime, on our southern border, a new wave of immigrant flooding is set to begin.

To even entertain the importation of more useless immigrants is staggeringly insane.

EU on the brink of migration collapse

Syrian Refugees In Greece, Port of Lesbos

Syrian refugees, Port of Lesbos, Greece.

The EU, European Union, is on the brink of total collapse and chaos.

So says the migration commissioner.

From YahooNews.com:

Ten days to save EU migration system: commissioner

Brussels (AFP) – The EU has until a March 7 summit with Turkey to curb the number of migrants coming to Europe or else the bloc’s migration system might “completely break down”, migration commissioner Dimitris Avramopoulos said Thursday.

“In the next 10 days, we need tangible and clear results on the ground. Otherwise there is a risk that the whole system will completely break down,” Avramopoulos told a press conference after interior ministers dealing with the crisis met in Brussels.

Syrian Refugee Migration SURGE MAPBut who will listen?

Will the GOWPs of the EU listen?

Is UK Prime Minister David Cameron listening?  He thinks Britain needs very much to remain in the EU.

At odds with Cameron is Boris Johnson, the Mayor of London — who thinks a Brexit is just what the doctor ordered.

The migration crisis is just one aspect of the UK’s problems, but it’s not just a United Kingdom problem but a German problem, a Greek problem, an Italian problem and overall a European Union problem.

Advanced, mostly, by Deutschland’s Angela Merkel — who opened her guilty WWII GOWP arms to the flood of Syrians which then, by extension, meant everyone else from North Africa and parts farther.

Ten day, then.  What could happen in ten days?

A breakdown.  A complete and utter breakdown — think Cloward-Piven Strategy — of the western European system on most every level you can imagine.  Fiscal, societal, physical, you name it.

And so when the EU system breaks, what else tends to break?

That’s right, the markets.  EU markets, Japanese markets and of course the US stock market.

Buckle up.

Putin mocks the West and threatens to turn off gas supplies

Vladimir PutinAgain, from the UKTelegraph.com:

by Damien McElroy

Vladimir Putin has mocked diplomatic efforts to end the Ukraine crisis as Russia threatened to disrupt European gas supplies by cutting off sales to Kiev over its unpaid debts.

The Russian president said through his official spokesman that, despite deep disagreements with the West, he did not want a confrontation over Ukraine to spiral into a “new cold war”.

Nevertheless Dmitry Peskov ridiculed Western demands for direct talks between the Kremlin and the new Kiev government, claiming that the loss of credibility involved “puts a smile on our face”.

Clearly, Mr Putin is enjoying the ride, as he watches the attempted coordinated response of western nations to the Ukraine/Crimean situation.  And the response is, as of yet, no response at all.

Putin’s history is such that he would care to reassemble the former USSR and bring Russia back to its so-called “former glory.”  For an individual whose higher educational thesis was on the politics of oil, and how to allow Russia to acquire even greater power due to its sitting on massive fields of gas and oil, his energy policy seems to follow the theme of holding nation states hostage for same.  This appears to be perfectly in keeping with his past holdings, philosophy, training, education and experience.

Those who find themselves shocked over Mr Putin’s moves have no grasp of Russian history and simultaneously a belief in fairy dust and gremlins.

One other slight difference between Germany and the US:

French Socialists Elect Hollande May 2012

Jubilant French Socialists elected Hollande in May of 2012.  Something changed.

From Josh Gerstein at Politico.com:

Germany, ‘Veggie Day,’ and Michelle Obama

BERLIN—The elections set to take place here in Germany Sunday are expected to turn largely on the country’s solid economy, Chancellor Angela Merkel’s handling of the European debt crisis and social issues like women’s role in the work force. But add to that plate one more thing: Germans don’t want the government telling them what to eat.

In what could be a cautionary tale for First Lady Michelle Obama’s efforts to tweak Americans’ diets, Germans look set to punish the Green Party for urging that public cafeterias go meat-free on a designated “Veggie Day” each week in order to help the environment and reduce cruelty to animals. Borrowing colorfully from English, German newspaper Bild described public reaction to the idea as a “shitstorm.”

Imagine that: “Germans don’t want the government telling them what to eat.”

Top that with this, from an older post of mine:

Germany’s Angela Merkel has the temerity and courage to state the obvious.  Germany has “had it.”  A pull quote: German Chancellor Angela Merkel: “lmmigrants should learn to speak German.” Read the article here.

The article I referred to in October of 2010 is entitled: “Merkel says German multicultural society has failed.”  How heinous, how overbearing, how insensitive of her to insist on a national language being embraced by immigrants!

Germany clearly has had it.

The French say multiculturalism is a flop as well, from my February 12th, 2011 post entitled: “Even The French Admit: “Multi-Kulti” = FAILURE.”

So the Germans did the proper thing and re-elected a person who has made them stronger in the face of weakness, more determined in the face of waffling, and more fiscally solvent in the face of budgetary EU failure and bankruptcy.

You won’t see that happening here because this country possesses what I term “Historical Alzheimers.”  We learn nothing from history.  Leftists are obviously historically ignorant.  Obama Socialist?  Indeed.

Everyone seems to think they can “do” Socialism better than the prior guy.  Including Obama.  He just doesn’t have the courage to say what he really means or wants.

But tell me, as one fellow reader at work said to me a day ago: “Show me successful liberalism.”

Key word: successful.

Chicago?  Detroit?  Even DC?
