Migration in Europe: A Yale Professor's Historic Perspective

The past decade has seen xenophobia on the rise in some parts of Europe. But has immigration historically helped Europe to prosper? Dr. Samuel Moyn, Chancellor Kent Professor of Law and History at Yale University, says, "Europe had these miraculous 30 years after World War Two...and actually, there was lots of migration during that period, precisely because the economies were booming, and there weren't enough workers. There's no reason to think in almost any country that migrants threaten jobs or growth. Actually, it's the reverse in most cases."

    Don't care anyways...There are no jobs in America for smart educated people. I have to move to Russia or, Kyiv in the midst of war, Azerbaijan in the midst of a war, Armenia isn the midst of genocide, or Tel a Viv in the midst of bombing in order to get a paycheck. Great job American Leaders....maybe Poland so I can be in the in the midst of nuclear tensions. Maybe I can get a paycheck there. Somewhere safe and equitable like Azerbaijan or the 'Stans...you know the country where like Javelins are used openly on the streets. That is where I'm going. Clean background, interpol etc. Who is hiring?
