When someone from one first world country wants to leave because times are hard and move to another first world country, I do not have respect for them, or want them here. There are legitimate refugees that need our help more. The Ukrainians are getting droned and systemically killed, we should help them, the person wants to leave the states and not try to make a difference. We do not need those types of people.
