According to the data, five percent of the global Syrian population now live in Germany alone, accounting for a “16-fold” increase in just a decade, which works out to be a staggering 1,520% jump in the numbers; here’s the story from a new report by the editorial staff at Remix News:

Ever since the 2015/16 migrant crisis, Syrians have arrived in Germany in ever-increasing numbers, and now number at least 972,000 at the end of 2023, according to Statista. There are 22 million Syrians living in Syria itself, meaning those in Germany represent nearly 1 for every 20 in their native country.

This is extremely rapid growth since 2013 when there were only 60,000 Syrians in Germany. Since then, the population has grown 16-fold.

And, to make matters even worse, these migrants are proving to be a tremendous drain on the German economy—gasp, who could have known! Also noted in the report:

[D]espite promises that Syrians would integrate into the German economy, the numbers still tell a very different story, with 513,534 Syrians receiving the German welfare benefit known as citizen’s money (Burgergeld), according to the current data from the Federal Employment Agency. However, even those who are not receiving this payment receive money, housing, and other benefits from the Asylum Seekers’ Benefits Act.

Okay, so roughly 53% of the Syrian “newcomers” are on the official dole, while another undisclosed number of Syrians are receiving social “benefits” via another avenue; per a German government website, taxpayer handouts from the Asylum Seekers’ Benefits Act will cover everything from food, accommodation, and household furnishings, to school supplies, medical insurance, baby supplies, and pregnancy costs.

Yep- they feel entitled to other people’s stuff

5% now, 53% on the dole means in five years they'll be 10-12%.

Agreed 100%- the only ‘requirement’ today seems to be ‘getting 1 foot onto American soil’, then everything is provided for them-

Liberals are destroying this nation- I hope Pres Trump goes back to that standard- Only the serious folks from other nations will still want to live in America, and their skills and patriotic attitudes will be a benefit to the nation- unlike the hatred attitudes in so many of the illegals today

Unless they start deportation soon, its over for Germany. Once they control the vote, goodbye.

With $45k, that’s more than this home’s income. So glad we can help them out. They’re bringing home the bacon (a good number do eat pork), the lobster and the steak while sitting on their backsides. This home hasn’t seen lobster or steak in years and stretching the last couple old cheapo bacon packages in the freezer for just seasoning.

Good thing I’m trying to get on a diet. This morning’s brunch was 1 egg on 2 tortillas = 28 cents and 150 cals.

our house either bgill- I’ve even read that with all the new hotel and motels throwing out citizens to make room for illegals, they are gettign much more than the $45,000 now when all is added up- it’s just sickening-
