There is an
unholy alliance between socialism and business interests in the issue of free
immigration. The Social Democrats and the Red-Greens want open borders for
ideological reasons and the economic managers want the highest possible rate of
immigration. Economic managers do not care if employee wages thereby fall. As
for the Social Democrats and the Red Greens, their ideology is ultimately more
important than the wellbeing of their employees.
In 2016, almost 5,000 asylum seekers
drowned in the Mediterranean.
An untenable
situation. How can this be prevented?
We could pick
up the refugees in Libya and Lebanon with large-capacity aircraft or old cruise
liners.
However, if
Europe opened its borders, several million economic refugees would come to
Europe every year.
The do-gooders point their fingers to
anyone who wants to limit the influx of refugees, crying: shame on you!
Nobody wants to
be called a do-gooder, but neither do they want to be called a monster. What is
the right attitude?
I think we
should rather be guided by reason. Feelings certainly have an important place
in our lives, but reason should always prevail in politics.
Politicians who
are guided by reason must slow down rose-tinted politicians, economic lobbyists
and do-good politicians.
Which of the
following statements is more populist?
- I am against building walls and I am against
partitioning ourselves off.
- We have to be realistic and, if necessary,
strengthen our borders.
