What are your thoughts on worldwide immigration?

Let’s talk about immigration… specifically about those fleeing wars and other terrors, including famine and an economy so bad their children are starving.

Do you feel like a country (any country, but specifically yours) has a responsibility to take in, humanly care for, shelter, and rehome (keep them in your country) these immigrants?

Should there be a global standard or should each country be on its own to do as it wishes in regard to immigrants fleeing wars/terror and abject poverty/hunger?

I wonder whose responsibility it is to take care of all the people displaced by no fault of their own besides being born in a war torn place. It is alarming how many people are displaced regularly.
Maybe countries do not have a legal responsibility to take care of these people, but what about human responsibility? Where is that? Why can't organisations set up for decades geared towards humanitarian services not come together, to come up with a solution? Why can't religious organisations do the same? A lot of them have access to ridiculous amounts of funds. I don't understand why little is being done about it.

@thinkingoutloud Very well said, and I agree.
