To many, refugees look like any other charity case, and we like to
imagine ourselves as participating in the benevolent act of
welcoming them to our country. But a second look, informed by the
historical and present-day facts and events shows the error of
assuming that they receive status and apparently offer nothing in
return. In fact, the author of this text argues, refugees arrive in
the country generally as a last resort, and although they are in
desperate need of assistance, they are in fact essential not only
for the economy, but for the diversity upon which contemporary
society thrives. A further look at global economics demonstrates
that our standard of living is partially dependant on the types of
corporate forays into the cheap labour wells and the unregulated
environmental buffets of the Third World that create refugee
problems. Our very social structure is built upon the fruits of
previous and ongoing First World control over distant lands.
