..I'm sure the most of the refugees want safety and normality - not to sit around living off state benefits.
As a matter of fact, that is exactly what was happening with certain nationalities from my former country, faking political asylum in Europe. You know, the ones who prefer their children in bulk, closer to a dozen than not. Multiply child benefits x dozen, ad housing subsidies and other benefits, and you can indeed live a life doing nothing. Well, not exactly nothing. There is plenty of spare time for engaging in drug trafficking, sex trade, and other endeavours.
If all they need is safety and normality, they could have stayed in the first peaceful country they enter. Instead, they are rushing all the way through to reach the final destination: countries with the most generous benefits. Why are they, for instance, refusing to stay in France, but are pushing (rioting) to get into Britain instead?
