Meanwhile Germany has a massive labor shortage in the services and skilled craftsman industries....

Been trying to find a contractor and electrician to do a heat pump install for over 6 months. All the stores near me are in need of additional labor to stay open, the restaurants struggle a bit to keep people...

Edit: I know this is hard for Germans to grasp, but electrician and plumbers is one three month school away from trained. Apprenticeships artificially limit the supply here. Any migrant can be brought up to speed in those skills.
- I don't think the people coming in are skilled labour for electricians and plumbers.
Migrants boost the GDP of Germany, do they not know it is in their interest to have them?
I guess Germany knows it's limit. Nothing wrong with that
Good, if we'd take them the next election would go straight to AFD.
- Yeah right. If we all act like the afd wants us to act, they don't need to be in power. Nice logic.
  
  Its not acting like afd to not take any more illigal immigrants, it would be if we put them in camps together with all Muslims and ship them back. Wich we don't do.
It's fun watching smug EU countries crumble under a little pressure from illegal immigrants.
- Meanwhile USA with twice the size of EU spends billions to keep mexicans out, but yeah its european countries freaking out.
- Yeah, label em as criminals then let em drown! Criminals aren't people they just kinda look and sound like people!
