Norway Offers to Pay Refugees to Leave: “$9,300 Dollars And Free Flights Home”

Frustrated with the influx of migrant refugees from Syria, Somalia and other war-torn countries in the region, Norway is leading a new path against the cultural invasion of Europe.

Rather than make empty promises to its citizens about better policies, the Scandanavian nation frequently rated as having the highest standard of living in the world is paying out money for asylum seekers to avert a lengthy bureaucratic wait and just leave instead:

As Fox News reports:

"A family with two children is eligible for up to $9,300 dollars – and free flights home, the Norwegian Directorate of Immigration told the media outlet. More than 900 people reportedly have accepted.

“[Refugees] thought that when they came to Norway they would get protection rather quickly,” the head of The Norwegian Directorate of Immigration’s return unit told local broadcaster NRK, The Local adds."

Instead, applications for family reunification can often take years, and an increasing number of refugees fleeing conflict in the Middle East and Africa don’t want to wait."

Norwegian leaders have been actively playing to the idea that refugees will simply not be accepted, and that more should not come.

Slow boat. Putting Islamists on planes has been shown to be all too frequently problematic.

Interesting.

I wonder what the “economic gradient” would be for immigration equilibrium for various countries.

Here “economic gradient for immigration equilibrium” would be that amount of money that, when offered to immigrants to go home, would result in a condition of equilibrium between voluntary immigration and voluntary emigration.

I bet it’s much more than $9,300. It has to be more like the present value of expected lifetime welfare entitlements.

I think Norway is starting something that will never end. Refugees will hear about the $$$ and be on regular flights JUST for the money to return to their third world sewer...and back.

Of all the ways our government wastes money, this is one I might look the other way on.

As long as the door is slammed firmly shut behind them.

If you seal the border effectively enough (and Norway’s only really accessible land border is Sweden, and the Baltic is a great deal colder than the Mediterranean) this should work for Norway. It may not work for every country, but the Norwedian government doesn’t need to come up with a solution for other countries.

Don’t laugh. Cheap at 10 times the price.

Missing one proviso: you can’t come back.

Why the adverse reaction? Deporting them seems a better way to keep from drowning in Shariah than most of the rest of the west has? You would rather that Norway keep them in Norway and coddle them, or do you want them beheaded?

Does this seem a little like Norway begging to you? It is like they are saying, “Please leave our country and we promise we will pay you lots of money.

So true.
Why would anyone want to live there? It's a wonderful country but ... the winters sometimes start in late August and end in early June. Brrrrr.

In other news, thousands of Danes are now claiming to be refugees after arriving in southern Norway today, and have taken the government up on a generous offer of a 9,000 dollar payoff and a free trip back to Denmark if they agree to leave.

Where I live, they run from November to late April, so it doesn’t sound so bad.
