In classic cultures, one of the major punishments among the elite was to “exile” a citizen. Presumably that made the troublemaker someone else’s problem. He (always a he) was also assumed to hate every minute of it, being away from everything he liked and people he knew.
Exile in the modern world has largely transformed into becoming an “immigrant.” The practice has also percolated downward to the lower and lowest classes. While in current civilization, a wealthy immigrant is treated as the incoming elite exiles always were, the new migrants are a more recent difficulty.
The usual places to live are stuffed, we have cut into mortality so deeply and made our food supplies so secure. That may, of course, change. Until then, what do we do with the migrations?
Most people hate to move, they like what they have until it is intolerable. In spite of mythology, most American immigrants like the Irish only came here because where they lived had become literally unlivable.
Now as then most residents have always wanted to ” send them back.” They are never like us. They often for example are lazy and dirty and work too hard for low pay cleaning houses and laundry. Send them back!
But at the moment there is no “back.” Probably no solution.
As in much of life, only an “outcome” currently unknown.
