    Oh sure, we can discuss it. I just didn’t have much time to write a long comment!

    This is a complicated issue, and the most obvious reason I would say is that these rich people and white explorers are more “important” than refugees, due to their background and money.

    There is a debate on whether to allow refugees into citizen’s countries. If so, how many? Should you allow all of them? What if there was a catastrophe and 2 million people moved through Europe? What if 1 million refugees attempted to enter your country?

    This is likely a never ending debate as the “answers” are valid for one group of people, and changes as societal standards change.
