Wrong Focus

Instead of focusing on the people who are victims of circumstances, don’t you think the focus should be on what they are fleeing from? Fixing THAT problem should be your focus. Not the refugees or a demented man’s political fortunes.

Don't know why this is directed at me. Sometimes you need to get off your preachy high horse, Rob. I wouldn't have thought it necessary to state the obvious. Yes, the situations they are fleeing are horrendous -chronic unemployment, generational poverty, pervasive institutionalized corruption and violence - conditions that unfortunately affect much of the world's population.
My post offers the opinion that these unfortunate people are being used....a better word would be exploited....for political purposes. Nothing more, nothing less.
