        ... It's not the sea, you braying jack-asses. The sea is an inanimate-ish object. In many ways it's European/N. African trade policies, local corruption, & climate change.

        So sad so many countries ignore their young & lead them to desperation. Programs To Help them stay build their own countries & lead meaningful lives are badly lacking. The whole World & #UN needs to help address root causes especially corruption & poor leadership.

        In an #OpenSociety (borderless) future, the young will leave many countries to the point where poorer/smaller nations suffer infrastructure/depopulation crisis even as desirable places are overrun to the point of an overpopulation/wage crisis. Bad for people. Bad for environment.

        Check in the European prisons! Many Tunisians are arrested, for example in Italy, for various crimes every day: drug dealers, robbers, rapists, etc.
