Rot happy as a clam in Euroland

Europeans began to realize that free movement within the 25-nation Schengen area meant just that: once accepted in any member country after a cursory procedure, a new arrival from anywhere on the planet can roam freely and eventually settle in next door. He may not speak the language, he may not have a job, but he is eligible for free medical care and other generous social benefits paid for by local taxes. Sounds like Texas.

As one Dutch parliamentarian puts it, "We don't want jobless Poles, Romanian beggars and people from North Africa or Turkey." Take that, Tecs!

"Stopping free movement endangers solidarity among Europeans and jeopardizes the European project," lectures José Manuel Barroso, a former Maoist and now, most appropriately, president of the unelected, unaccountable, Politburo-like European Commission in Brussels. As wiki says: He was one of the leaders of the underground Maoist MRPP (Reorganising Movement of the Proletariat Party, later PCTP/MRPP, Communist Party of the Portuguese Workers/Revolutionary Movement of the Portuguese Proletariat. Pepe at the bat.

Jobless Poles.

What a joke. They're the only ones that really work here, like Mexicans in the US.
