Much of the problem has been due to the European Union pressuring countries across Europe to welcome and even invite migrants to come, although there has been significant regret from some leaders involved in the initial drive. I doubt they realised it would amass the millions in recent years creating a drain on the economy, a housing crisis and healthcare challenges, not to mention ever rising violent crime rates. We have a similar issue in politics where one side repeatedly succeeds in pushing for open borders despite all the evidence that the policy is failing. I have every sympathy for the difficulties the US is facing on the border.

It has been very very interesting to watch what has happened regarding these policies in the Scandinavian countries.

The countries were very successful at implementing neo-socialist policies (what I call the new tendency towards capitalism with heavy taxation and strong social safety nets, as opposed to the traditional socialism that is analogous to true communism) when they were able to maintain a very homogenous population, and for a while they looked like geniuses with great education, low poverty, low crime, and high living standards

The immigration was clearly a disaster waiting to happen for them, muslims don't culturally assimilate, and they are economic refugees that use a disproportionate amount of very generous and very expensive services. This was clearly going to lead to resentment, social problems, and a backlash that moves people in the opposite direction from what they are intending

Indeedie, and the resulting disaster is clear to see, Sweden especially. We witness lawless segregated ghettos of Muslims, massive increases in rapes and violent crimes and lack of security for the citizens. It must be very unsettling to see your local culture be eroded in such a short period. We may be beginning to see the change in tide though as policy points away from encouraged mass immigration. The socialist policies largely prevented even talk of the negative consequences of the migrant failing to integrate.
