Thank you for the information. You are right, once in Europe with all its “free” benefits, the cost of the plane ticket etc. can be easily recouped.

Under colonialism, advanced cultures export their governance to relatively primitive societies, gradually bringing them into the modern world. This was found to be exploitative and disrespecful of primitive values.

So we stopped, if not always voluntarily.

Primitive societies generally have proved unable on their own to produce modern culture without colonial masters, but feel they have a right to that culture. Their solution to the problem is to export the people to the governance, illegally if necessary, bringing primitivism’s degradation to advanced societies.

It seems better for all concerned if the primitives stayed at home while upgrading to modernity under control of advanced culture. primitive Call it neocolonialism.

Come to think of it, Bush’s New Wilsonian dreams of exporting democracy at gunpoint were a step in that direction.

Something has to give. There isn’t room in the northern hemisphere for everyone in the southern.
