Jeg må si meg helt enig med Lars Fosdal . Vi har absolutt råd til å ta vare på flyktninger. Jeg skulle bare ønske hun kunne sluppet belastningen med usikkerheten i så lang tid.

Vi trenger mange, MANGE, flere historier som denne. Hva er vel vitsen med rikdommen vi pumper opp av havet, dersom vi ikke kan bruke den til velferd og gode gjerninger?
