Migration to the west, the right way to go?

In Europe the unemployment grade today is +10%. For southern countries, the situation is even worse.
That is why migrating to a southern European country for an African migrant or refugee (from Syria or Irac) might not be that interesting.
Especially not if you realise a lot of Portugese and Spanish people moved to there former colonies for work. Which apparently there were no work forces enough for in these countries?
However, massive floods of people go to western Europe these days. A roughly estimation of 2 million people crossing the border can be made for 2015. Most of them heading to countries like Germany, Belgium, Holland, the U.K., Denmark and Sweden.

So why then this migration ?
If there is no future there, back in Africa, most of all the middle east, what is the perspective here?

There already IS an extremely high rate of unemploymency troughout western Europe among a lot of people. To give an idea: the unemployment grade about Brussels youngsters is 28.9% at the end of September. (Which is better than Greece with a youth unemployment rate of 50%, which is unfortunately the same as in Europeans capital in some quartiers). The global unemployment rate in Brussels is still above 20% (table from 2010).
This people seem to belong a lot more to the following category than not, often:
- they have a lower education than average (no matter if they are european and speak the language and have the same cultural background and habits or not)
- they have other cultural backgrounds (despite if they share the language or education status)
- they have other ethnic backgrounds, specifically non-EU backgrounds
- young people (below 26)

The situation is even harder, because for non-EU migrants all this factors come together:
having no - or no appropriate education, stem from a background which is incomparable with the postmodern european society and it's organisation (e.g., public services: health services, mobility, post services, consuming patterns, even the way you get food what you eat and of course what food is eaten or how you go to the toilet, how you wash and how often, ...).
Of course don't speak the language, have another alphabet, being adapted to another climate and culture and often have another religion.



Of course, when you stem from a country with a total other culture and language, it is not strange that it is more difficult for you to adapt to total other local habits.
First thing is you have to learn the language. But no matter how hard you exercise, unless you're younger than 6 you'll never speak it as native people do because the laryngopharynxc structure of the mouth will adapt towards the phonetical sounds it has produces before that age. So you'll never speak properly German, French, Dutch or another western European language. As a consequence, it will be hard for you to express yourself and people listening at you may have a hard time understanding what you mean.
Reading the language might go more easy. But writing a language correctly takes a lot of time and patience. In fact, low or even middle educated European people (no matter if they are German, Dutch, French, Italian, ...) don't succeed in it theirselves!
Unfortunately for a lot of office jobs these days you need to handle the telephone and answer e-mails. So this functions are hard for these people to get.
Is this discrimination?
No, this is a problem with the presence of certain skills needed unfortunately to run such positions and to make sure the organisation can run smoothly in it's communication and is being done effeciently.

In a high-developed economy which is based on knowledge especially, these persons have a problem. Even more so in capital areas where are all head departments situated, requiring highly skilled people, like in Brussels.
Especially since the reaction of the "original youth" is to study even more: overeducation, is also a problem in Europe which is very costly for societies, while the benefits don't outweight the later start on the labour market often. This is because the degrees offered lost their worth.

So it is no surprise the unemployment grade for them is extremely high. Because they have all the odds against them.
It is true we are short of european young people who work for all the older going to retire, but in fact: factories were physical work is highly in demand already left Europe more than a decade ago.

And the white, european christian/jew/ our even the "old" migrants (as old as 1 untill 40 years in Belgian) which were never able to fully learn the language or never got educated to middle educated level, already have unemployment grades raising until 30% and more! Almost 20% of german youngters today have a risk of living in poverty and being socially excluded.

So, while demographically one could argue that we need young people to work in order to make sure the retired ones get their retirement fees (which they worked for but is used by our government already), in reality the picture is a lot more complex.
Simply, the jobs which are suited for "new coming" people where education, nor language knowledge is of none importance, are already gone.
Indeed, in terms of numbers (sounding inhumane) there is massive "excess" of people here already with low education and non specific skills who can integrate in our labour market which is knowledge and skills focused.

On the other hand: probably in Africa and the middle east there are people too which are highly educated and highly skilled. But is it ethical to drain that people to western europe, why so much still need to be done in this developing countries?
