“It is not Germany’s or France’s fault. It is the fault of their leaders who imported vast numbers of Moslems against the will of their citizens.”
I don’t think that is really correct. The citizens were all in. They were fine with bringing in muslims to do the jobs they didn’t want to do; and even more so the jobs they had nobody to do. The Euros stopped having babies 25- 30 years ago. They stopped producing enough of their own citizens to do the work.Now they are paying the price.
The only reason they are complaining now is they are getting gunned down in the streets.
And you are right...We have made the same mistakes and continue to make the same mistakes, but it is our citizens as much as the government. If we continue a slower rate of childbirth we will be in the same boat.
What, the “citizens” that were splashed all over the media waving banners? Believing that is like believing “Black Lies Matter” is the majority viewpoint of the USA.
There are plenty of people who can work but instead opt out of life by going on the dole. Even in Germany.
And meanwhile, behind the Iron Curtain, Poles and Hungarians did those jobs, because they didn’t have a choice. Yes, it sucked then, but look how much better off they are now. Hopefully they won’t repeat the same mistakes that Western Europe did, now that they are free from Communism.
The US’s fertility rate is at less than replacement levels. It has been that way since 1972.
Okay.
I hope they (and we) start recovering.
