If you go back to 2014, there were probably 50,000 Greeks who legally came into Germany for employment....a lot were young university graduates who gave up on any future in Greece. German companies eagerly picked up these professionals and they are now permanently part of the German society. With all the negative trends....I’d make a bet that the Greek entry into Germany still continues today.
With the availability of educated but seeking jobs from European countries with high unemployment rates, why in heaven’s name would Germany’s elites seek out immigrants from non-European, non-Christian, Muzzie countries with no similar cultural mores? They (in particular Merkel) are nuts and it will be Germany’s downfall unless it stops its suicidal tendencies immediately, if not sooner.
Spaniards are drawn to Germany as well; the Spanish government has publicly encouraged any that can work in Germany to do so. Germany wants them as long as they speak German and have a skill.
My guess is that the recent trafficking of Muslims was done because Germany needs burger flippers; I don’t see southern Europeans leaving friends & family behind to earn what they’d get from the dole in their own countries anyway. BTW, I think that is why we keep our southern border open; in the NYC metro area unskilled Americans won’t work as burger flippers.
