Hier ein äußerst bedenkenswerter Vorschlag zur Lösung unseres Migrationsproblems. Würde zwar etwas kosten, löst aber unsere größten Schwierigkeiten.
A Buyout Option For Europe's Muslims?
By Steve Sailer (http://www.vdare.com/sailer/index.htm)
Francis Fukuyama, (http://www.vdare.com/pb/anation_review_15.htm) a recovering neocon (http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m2751/is_78/ai_n8686609), continues his attempt to distance himself from neocon orthodoxy. Last week, in a Wall Street Journal essay "A Year of Living Dangerously: Remember Theo van Gogh, and shudder for the future" (http://www.opinionjournal.com/editorial/feature.html?id=110007491) (November 2), Fukuyama heretically noted that immigration has proven a disaster for the Netherlands (http://www.vdare.com/blog/110904_blog.htm) and Britain.
Of course, Fukuyama was only talking about Muslim immigration (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&q=site:vdare.com+%20%22Muslim+immigration), not the good kind of immigration (i.e., everybody else in the world (http://www.vdare.com/sutherland/open_letter_egan.htm)), so he's not wandering too far off the neocon reservation.
Further, Fukuyama's policy recommendations come straight out of Neoconism for Dummies:
"[C]ountries like Holland (http://blog.vdare.com/archives/2005/02/28/multiculturalism-in-holland/) and Britain (http://www.vdare.com/blog/102104_blog.htm) need to…reformulate their definitions of national identity to be more accepting of people from non-Western backgrounds (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abu_Hamza_al-Masri)… [T]he much more difficult problem remains of fashioning a national identity that will connect citizens of all religions and ethnicities in a common democratic culture, as the American creed (http://www.vdare.com/francis/huntington_book.htm) has served to unite new immigrants to the United States."
Been there—done that! As I wrote about Europe on VDARE.com over a year ago in a piece meaningfully headed "Four Failed Immigration Approaches" (http://www.vdare.com/sailer/invite_the_world.htm):
"One European country has already tried out just about the entire neocon bag of assimilative tricks—with deeply mixed results… The French have traditionally tried to do with their immigrants almost exactly what the neocons recommend (http://www.vdare.com/francis/hanson2.htm) here: cultural assimilation, education in civics theories, monolingualism, meritocracy, separation of church and state, and all the rest.”
And today we can see the result: a week straight of immigrant rioting (http://blog.vdare.com/archives/2005/11/01/is-paris-burning/) in Paris of such intensity that one French official likened it to a "civil war."
Bad timing, Frank!
Which brings us to the unmentionable alternative solution that Peter Brimelow (http://www.vdare.com/pb/index.htm) has just pointed out in his Why Not (Muslim) Emigration? (http://blog.vdare.com/archives/2005/11/03/pondering-paris-why-not-emigration/): A more practical approach than "fashioning a national identity that will connect” etc. etc. would be to have the disaffected simply leave.
A push-pull policy could be very effective in getting Muslims (http://vdare.com/fulford/denounces_sierra_club.htm#asylum)to go away. European countries should combine the push of a crackdown on welfare (http://www.parapundit.com/archives/001955.html) and crime (http://www.vdare.com/fulford/racial_rape.htm) with the pull of a buy-out offer. Returning to the Old Country with a sizable nest egg would be alluring to many who haven't assimilated into the European middle class.
A buy-out program, paying Muslims who are legal residents of European countries to emigrate, could be a huge bargain compared to more rioting (http://www.vdare.com/francis/british_riots.htm), terrorism (http://blog.vdare.com/archives/2005/07/08/immigration-and-the-london-bombings/), crime (http://www.vdare.com/fulford/scenes_from_britain.htm), and multiculturalism (http://www.vdare.com/francis/041230_multiculturalism.htm).
Offer Muslim residents, say, $25,000 each to go away. Permanently.
A family of five festering in the slums of slums of Paris (http://www.rogerlsimon.com/mt-archives/2005/11/the_last_time_i.php), Rotterdam (http://www.washtimes.com/commentary/20041114-103944-4700r.htm), and Birmingham (http://www.vdare.com/misc/powell_speech.htm) could live in North Algeria, Pakistan, or Indonesia like local gentry if they had $125,000 in the bank!
Of course, not all Muslims would accept the buy-out, but those who stayed behind would tend to be the more satisfied and less troublesome.
A few technical caveats:
· The program could only be open to legal residents in the country as of today, to discourage both a sudden influx (http://www.vdare.com/francis/promise_of_amnesty.htm) and a baby boom. (http://www.vdare.com/sailer/rove.htm)
· To discourage illegal return immigration, the buyout would only be paid out over the course of, say, five years to ex-residents now actually living in Muslim countries.
· An immigrant who accepts the buy-out but then wishes to return to the European country for a tourist visit would have to deposit the value of the buyout as a bond. Visa over-stayers would be imprisoned.
At $25,000 each, for every million Muslims who leave, the one-time cost to the taxpayers would be $25 billion.
For the Dutch, who have about one million Muslims resident (http://www.religionnewsblog.com/8727-.html), the gross cost would be just over 5% of one year's GDP ($481 billion (http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/nl.html) in 2004). (To get the net cost, you’d have to adjust for savings to the taxpayer like the cost of e.g. educating immigrant children. (http://www.vdare.com/pb/tanton_excerpt.htm) It might well turn out that this buy-out program is a fiscal boon).
Even if it took $50,000 each, that would still only be one percent of the Netherland's GDP per year for merely a decade.
That’s a cheap price for solving the country's worst problem.
Although buy-outs are a win-win solution, they are considered a weird, radical (http://www.vdare.com/pb/baja_buyout.htm) idea by the reigning multi-cultis, whose most-quoted philosopher (http://www.hypocrites.com/article15530.html) once asked "Can't we all just get along?"
But, in private life, where people care more about effective problem-solving than competing in a holier-than-thou sweepstakes, buy-outs are a common practice.
When a business finds it hired the wrong people, it often determines that paying them to go away is better for all concerned that letting them hang around.
Europe (http://www.vdare.com/sailer/turkey.htm) must now know that it brought in too many of the wrong kind of people. (http://www.vdare.com/zmirak/turks.htm) It should act like a responsible corporation and pay them to leave.
Not for the first time, the Israelis (http://www.vdare.com/fulford/israel_assimilation.htm) have the right idea. I’ve already noted that they’ve demonstrated (http://colbycosh.com/#pmfe) for us that border fences work. (http://www.vdare.com/sailer/israeli_fence.htm) Now it turns out they’ve also tried buy-outs. Payments to leave have been used at least twice in recent times: to pay off Israeli settlers to exit the Sinai (http://www.isteve.com/kosovo.htm) in the early 1980s in the wake of the Camp David Accords; and to vacate the Gaza Strip earlier this year, successfully averting civil war within Israel.
Of course, for a European democracy to start a program of immigrant buy-outs would be a crushing rebuke to Western governments' decades-long (http://www.vdare.com/francis/shocked.htm) determination to “elect a new people.” (http://www.vdare.com/pb/people.htm)
That's all the more reason to do it."
