The New Colossus

With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”

Free Exchange on European Immigration

with one comment

Immigration into Europe is part of the solution to economic woes rather than part of the problem.

Yet, many countries (Spain, we’re looking at you) don’t get it.

As an aside, my pal wrote a nice paper on using incentives to encourage Europeans to have more babies and therefore relieve the growing debt burden on younger generations.  I don’t think she was too happy when I told her we should just import more immigrants.

Don’t Indonesian authorities have anything better to do?

Oh that’s right, it’s probably profitable for cops to find an illegal foreigner or two.
