You know it's getting bad when even Bill Gates thinks letting in hordes of refugees is unsustainable

Bill Gates has warned that European leaders risk deepening the migrant crisis by being too generous to those arriving on the continent.
The Microsoft founder said countries such as Germany will not be able to handle the 'huge' numbers of migrants waiting to leave Africa and find a better life overseas.
Instead, the 61-year-old suggested spending more on foreign aid to treat the root causes of migration, while making it more difficult for people to reach the continent.
'On the one hand you want to demonstrate generosity and take in refugees.
'But the more generous you are, the more word gets around about this — which in turn motivates more people to leave Africa.
'Germany cannot possibly take in the huge number of people who are wanting to make their way to Europe.'
