Norway Is Now PAYING Migrants To Leave
2015-12-08
[Daily Caller] Norway is offering asylum seekers a chunk of money and airfare to leave the country and return home in an effort to deal with the migrant burden.
Pay now or pay later.
Those who agree to leave receive a free flight home and the equivalent of thousands of U.S. dollars, reports the Independent. A family of four can get more than ÂŁ6,200, or about $9,300 in addition to airfare.

More than 900 migrants have taken Norway up on the deal and applied for money to leave, according to Norway's immigration department's return unit. The International Organisation for Migration (IOM) processes the applications and offers advice it tells the Independent is "safe and dignified."

IOM spokesman Joost van der Aalst says the number of migrants applying to leave is surging, with an average of 100 applications per month early in the year to an average of 230 in November.

#4  Of course, then they'll just use the money to migrate to Norway again. Lather, rinse, repeat.

Where the cold nights are long, the women beautiful and the Lutefisk stew, divine.
