They should be. That’s government assistance they’ll never see.

I think Merkel was trying to change Germany's image to a more positive one in terms of welcming refugees. But, like Sweden, there was an unchecked stream of refugees and neither Germany nor Sweden could support them all and continue to have a wide open door to them.
I think Sweden's next election is going to be really interesting because SD (Sweden Democrats) are getting alot of support here and they want to take away all these benifits that the refugees have gotten/curb migration/take away Dual Citizenship/etc. It's an interesting time.
