In Slovenia's defense, they are just enforcing the Schengen zone border control... Just not going as overboard with it as Hungaria's wall-off-the-embark strategy. Of course, what good can come out of it is the thing we, or rather, everyone should be discussing. No, really, it baffles me how comfortable with sitting with thumbs up their asses the majority of EU politicians are. Like you DIDN'T expect things will go south people will eventually reach north and yet they act if this whole crisis is something that happened in span of few days. And further problem I'm seeing at least where I live is population dividing into 2 far extremes - either help every single refugee at all cost and with no questions asked (I've reported about tear gas being used on Slovenian border? Rumor has it there was some Slovenian activist-agitator who rilled up the masses into trying to break through), OR expel them all like they are all unholy 11th plague or what (or "human trash" a certain Polish guy with a silly fashion sense and funny mustaches put it). And no solid strategy on how to deal with all this mess. It is here that can be seen just how, despite all the flowery EU-unity speeches and such, underneath Europe is still just a collection of bickering nations with petty grudges and always-present latent xenophobia.

Glory, glory to many, I am a voice in their choir.

Yuropoors have consistently placed themselves in Putin's palms despite having vastly superior resources at their disposal, curious, but not that curious considering Yurop is the slag of international politics

Yurop is just land that was lent to Vatican by the old Czars and they were traitors to the people, gib back Russian soil Euro scums, your fires of democracy cannot melt Putin-beams

Well, they are still looking at a solution, but talks are still foundering on how to attributes refugees around Europe. It's not even that everyone kicked down the can, it's that some countries are blocking any attempt to manage refugees at the European levels, leaving the existing, obsolete Dublin rules in place.

So, they're picking up trash?

I have it!

Let's just kick all the European countries that do not want to take up refugees out of the EU.
Consequentially, all labourers from those countries working in the EU should be deported back to their countries, because, bye bye Schengen work visa.

This should free up more than enough homes and jobs for the refugees!

Blame Charlemagne

Whenever I see that guy's name my brain just refuses to bother figuring out how to pronounce it properly and transforms it into Charles Mage. Is this awesome: yay/Xnay

So, they're picking up trash?

martinuzz: funny thing is, I don't believe those non-complying countries will bother at this point. Sent loose the hounds of slight-aggravation and apathy.

Maybe it's just me being American, but, what's special about 1/31/2007?

*looks at wiki* Oh that horribly botched marketing campaign.

Still believing in paying Greece to become the one single triage center for the whole of the Refugee crisis will kill tons of birds with one big stone.

All courts and care centers will need people to run. These all costs money but at the same time promotes spending. Just make sure that people who are granted asylum can slowly go on to somewhere else and integrate into Europe.

Plus it would reverse the workforce decline that Greece has experienced to have huge numbers of young and middle class syrians join the population, even temporarily.  Greece even has a radical left wing government which is the sort of thing you'd need to put such a plan into action.  Absorbing four million refugees would be a challenge for a country of 11 million people but you could have aid workers come from all over europe to oversee the process and make sure the country isn't swamped and the money is somewhat well spent.  And it would solve Greek unemployment about as thoroughly as the attack on Pearl Harbor ended concerns about American unemployment.

Greece doesnt even have a goverment anymore. Its election day today, for the record.

How many elections they had since 2008?

That'd be glorious, and then we could deport all the EU migrants in our countries so the EU nations get flooded by their own people and immigrants at the same time

[Graknorke]

No LW you don't understand. We'd be flooded by... old people. They'd have to move back from Spain and be shitty patriates over here rather than shitty expatriates somewhere else.
