IMMIGRATION thread

[Montmorency]

PVC, the Germanic migrations contributed to the end of Roman power because decentralization attended their incorporation. So the point is not just the presence of the refugees, or even of the lack of a systematic EU policy toward them, but what the latter really indicates about the strength of the central EU authority vis-a-vis the attitudes of nations and national governments. Let's invite Putin to be emergency dictator of the EU; we can check back in after 5 years. Putin, or Merkel, at any rate.
