An email from a friend was telling me how many people are moving up from California to Portland area and her concern with the overload. I am thinking with global climate change likely, we may see a lot of migration and how exactly that will work out can be debated for sure but it's likely coming with ocean changes, droughts and inability to produce enough food in a given area... Interesting times indeed.

It bears closer examination.<br /><br />It seems as if large families are moving through right now, at least if the reports on Sirius radio's panoply of news stations are representative. Job skills and terrorism and willingness to work are all considerations, but they are in camps now, and won't get into the US for 12-18 months, so why not lie on the sand, work on their English, learn a trade, and be ready to hit the ground running when they pass inspection?<br />a/bAshleigh Burroughshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05790757220725900941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2546626959391412613.post-90346206250429435752015-09-15T10:02:07.987-07:002015-09-15T10:02:07.987-07:00I wonder though if they'd see it as a concentr...I wonder though if they'd see it as a concentration camp. they don't want to get into camps at all right now, and there is a concern in letting them just go into the countries. If there was a plan to bring them out of there, they might be more trusting. How do we figure out though who is a terrorist wantabe and who is a legitimate refugee given we seem to have a hard time recognizing wantabes in our own country? Then there is this question-- do they have job skills? The ones coming up here from Mexico have usually had those and they are coming for jobs, not just welfare as some claim. I wonder though who these Syrians are and have seen little answer to that.<br /><br />I read an article btw that said Saudi Arabia has taken several million Syrian refugees over the past couple of years; so who knows what the truth is of anything we read.
