How to combat the mass immigration problem the West is currently facing

Solving the immigration problem is not as complicated as it is often portrayed by the media.

One vital aspect the West keeps stumbling over is the issue of urgency. The need to address the cases of X and Z, who are seeking asylum, while the necessity to exclude Y from the immigration equation, is pressing and cannot be ignored.

Let’s say X and Z are fleeing from a war-torn country financed by the West. Most humanitarian laws point towards the obvious; granting such cases the means that facilitate starting over their lives in the country of their choice. This means all other cases that do not meet the criteria of fleeing from un-liveable circumstances should not be considered for asylum. In fact, eligibility for other visas should be restricted or discouraged.

Y would be the case where Turkish people, for example, are fleeing from Turkey and applying for political asylum and are deemed eligible and factually obtain that status.

Turkey is a thriving economy, and the West does not need more factory workers, kebab restaurants, or small businesses selling Fanta or Greek yoghurt under the Turkish flag.

Immigration based on political affiliation is not a life-threatening matter.

Another example is North African and Pakistani males living in mud houses in their home countries, fleeing to the West to improve their economic situation. Also, returning every year, building houses in their native homes but never remigrating.

How necessary is it for the West to hand these men, who claim to already have the skills that allow them to work and the best intentions to contribute to Western society, the tools to succeed?

Why are these men seeking to improve their economic situation only aspire to that in the West?

How come the answers predominantly lay only in the West for the ninety per cent of males departing from female-oppressive countries?

And why is the West also providing for these men, who I am sure have the best intentions not to create chaos or the same type of corruption they fled from in the West?

The soft tissue matters these people face in their home countries will not kill them.

Turkey is an advanced country that allows Turkish people to breathe freely and excel in their natural habitat. Turkish families with children born in the West often choose to skip primary school education in their host countries as they prioritise the basic education of their homeland. They do this to preserve their culture. Consequently, most Turkish children end up having to go to special needs education curriculums to then proceed on to the labour market.

As a result, you will find female adults born in the West who do not speak a word of the host nation’s lingo. Many of their men work blue-collar jobs or are predominant cleaners in almost every Western country.

Besides migrating for economic reasons, Turks and North Africans are also the largest contributors to family reunion migration.

The strange thing here in the case of Turkey is that Turkey is so developed and safe that it hosts millions of tourists worldwide every year, including its own people.

How necessary is it for the West, to grant people political asylum when they are holidaying in their country every year? At times, starting from the first year they fled their homeland?

If they are not being prosecuted or held hostage due to posing an immediate threat, why can’t they live in their respective home countries?

Why can’t these skilled workers in the West resolve these political matters within the borders of their own countries? That means without the interference of the West.

Why does the West keep allowing this type of immigration under the banner of globalisation and economic interest?

Y is putting immense pressure on the economy and is more inclined to contribute to the decay of Western society.

Unnecessary immigration puts unprecedented pressure on the housing market and adds to traffic and road problems, thus causing pollution in Western countries.

To solve the current migration problem the West is dealing with, which is weighing down its societies, the West needs to immediately restructure its current migration laws and close all loopholes, allowing unnecessary migration. Stricter legislation will enable governments to revive the economy, have a better overview on the job market, reduce crime rates, and secure the future of their people.
