@EdGein your belief that the conditions that cause people to migrate are inherent and not a result of the historical and economic forces that created them betray your actual position. You don't get to invade countries and continents, strip them of their wealth, then act incredulous when denizen of those places try to migrate to places where wealth is centralized. This is true from India and the VOC, Leopold II and the scramble for Africa to the United Fruit Company and western corporate incursion in the age of neo-colonialism. The problems aren't inherent, they're manufactured.
It has worked more than it has failed. World-wide, human history, all subgroups including that of the so-called European is replete with the stories of people who migrated, met other people, often fought, loved and then co-existed, in much the same way as the ancient antediluvian human groups did. This isn't new, and will never stop: the group that genetically self-isolates from the more diverse human gene pool, is the group that will develop strange mutations, cancers and other diseases, the inability to procreate, inexplicably high mortality rates, and eventually extinction.
