Doing business out of people's misery

The numbers seldom give the whole picture, but still they do help realise its true scope: the European outer borders have been crossed by more than a hundred thousand refugees for the last couple of months, Frontex data shows. Most of these people have used the "services" of traffickers, and many of these attempts have ended up with a tragic result

Lots of my compatriots seem to have seized the business opportunity, and are working as traffickers now. Making easy money at the expense of the most vulnerable and desperate. It's disgusting really.

Did you hear? An Egyptian businessman is trying to negotiate the purchase of a couple of Greek islands, where he could settle as many refugees as possible, and give them work so they could build their own state. His proposal remains ignored for the time being. For how long, remains to be seen.

Yeah, good luck with convincing Greece to carve up a piece of their territory.
