lol no

What nation would you rather be poor in?

Would your response change based on whether you intended to live off of the mininum provisions guaranteed by your poverty over the course of your life, or would you choose a different nation to be poor in if you had the work ethic to climb out of poverty?

That makes it seem like you think America became a great place by chance.

if i was born in some shithole like Syria and i could move to a place like Germany? yeah i would consider it


Those are economic migrants, not "refugees". Also could call them invaders.

Fair point worth further investigation if true, could you please provide some sources for your statements, particularly the one regarding the demographic makeup of the refugees as well as their distribution. I'm open to reconsidering my opinions

The information in these links is based on UNHCR data. I'm having trouble finding the 90% figure I read previously, but it you do the rough
math, about 6M are displaced within Syria. 5M are in neighboring countries or outside of Europe, and 1M are seeking asylum in Europe.

Lot of people acting here like they are Rambo when the reality is they couldn't even stop John Bel Edwards from being elected as governor.

Most of the people here fronting would scatter like bitches after one round of airstrikes.
