Absolutely I would be doing the same, I did it tougher than most I think, and I would be scrambling to get away.They're moving away not because they want to move towards imperialism. They're just getting away from a sinking ship that's about to be invaded. Who can blame them really. You got to put food on the table, get your family out of harms way. You've been warned.
Oil might have, I'm guessing, 50 years left, tops.
'til then, the war machines need to grind on... if not to control the flow of oil and the money that dominates it, then it will at least ensure the war machines have fuel to run on.

But I would realise that where I go to, will eventually be bogged down with similar people, it just seems everyone is climbing onto the available lifeboat, eventually all the lifeboats sink from overloading.
Maybe the lifeboat, will become just like what they were fleeing from.Maybe they believe that once they got on a life boat and survived, they'll do great things, save the world, warn people, build a more peaceful world etc. to save all our skins?
Well, maybe. After welfare, freebies and maybe one generation. The second and third one will start to hate foreigners too.

That is the more likely outcome.
Sad really
Not if they can help it.
Obviously there are a few, and a few is too many, exception. But imagine if you're fleeing from war, famine, dictators, typical a-holes... and not die but are given a second chance in life.
Most normal people would take that opportunity and make the most of it.
That and if you've been in those places... you're not going to complain about working two jobs, labouring like dogs, being exploited.. if it mean your kids can study, and live, in peace; you get to have some saving to send back home.
Not saying people should be exploited or work like dogs... you know what I mean.
That and if you look at where the money all goes, why a country decay and collapse... it's never because the poor have too much. And it's never because new immigrants who cannot speak the language somehow managed to get politicians to give them all the money.
Any money to the needy is very generous. But on the scale of things, it'd be like Turnbull holding a wad of cash and give the homeless guy $5. It's generous, but it's not going to mean he'll head back to Canberra, broke the national Treasury to end homelessness.
If that was all true, Melbourne wouldn't have the issues with the Somalia's.
I don't live there but even in Perth, we are having issues with African gangs, they caused a soccer club to lock tjemsethem in the clubrooms.
I know you must have an immigration assistance company running, but maybe you need to screen better. Lol

ALAN Jones and his team have been ordered to pay a record $3.7 million in compensation for defaming a Queensland family by claiming they were responsible for 12 deaths in the 2011 Lockyer Valley floods.

The Toowoomba mob aren't exactly beige people themselves. They operate quarries and "recycling" dumps. Recently they built a private airport (Wellcamp), did a sweet deal with Qantas, etc just in time for a mining turn down
Maybe that just makes them smart business people ?
Well it does beggar the question why they would be concerned with the ramblings of nutter, especially as it's been an ongoing war for some time and they have managed to build and consolidate an empire in the face of it.
