Two points. First of all, I recall reading in one of Thomas Cahill's books in his series called the hinges or history, a snap freeze had dramatic repercussions upon Rome. For, waves of migration started there, and it ended with the sack of Rome.

The other thing is, we are paying the price for not exporting democracy to Africa. Otherwise, they would be staying where they are, rather than have them risk their lives to come here.

Just goes to show how little good can result when money is thrown at a problem.
