« on: Today at 04:38:27 PM »It’s of course fair that the pros and cons should be discussed.I have no idea J70. But I'd have extreme reservations about dumping them into a particular area that have not the resources or support to cater for them. That has been tried over and over throughout history with the end product being ghettos.
But what is supposed to be done with refugees?
Whether it’s Syrians or Ukrainians or victims if wherever the next conflict is, do we just turn our back and “say not our problem, we have enough to deal with ourselves”?
I’m sure most countries are in the same boat.
How do you prepare for a sudden onslaught of displaced refugees?
Have a bunch of facilities waiting around and bring maintained for that purpose?
Because then you’ll hear all about the waste and how they could be better used for our own people.
But that’s my point.
Is ANYWHERE ever prepared for a sudden influx of refugees?
Should governments now be planning for this, building facilities which can be mobilized in the event?
Will people accept their governments spending money for this type of eventuality?

If diversity (in this form) is such a plus to society, how come the good folks of Foxrock and Dalkey aren’t clamoring to house some of these folks in their neighborhoods
