Setting a limit on migrants. How will that help?

How exactly does a country in the EU put a limit on migration from other EU states? I know our government have not defined how they will do it but they do make the statement it cannot continue as before and imply limits will be set. Read here.

Now I thought the whole point of a EU superstate was to emulate the US model including areas like mobility. The EU was supposed to be similar to the US with all the shared infrastructure, labour moving to where it is required and the richer parts helping the poor. Was that not what we were told? So how can our EU lords and masters set up a continental superstate when barriers are in place? What is to stop these people migrating to France first then into the UK from there?

Anyway, surely our concerns are not really about workers coming in but the number coming in to claim social security. So you would think we can just set a limit on who can claim benefits and our issues will be solved. As a matter of fact if our EU master have their way it won't be long before we are funding them in Bulgaria or wherever from the UK without them actually having to move in. So in the medium term it will be irrelevant where they are now. If Bulgaria has 95% unemployment and we don't our taxes will undoubtedly increase to fund their social security.

So bottom line it doesn't really matter what our government does to stem this tide. Like the tide it will continue to grow until we are swamped. It's just another reaction to shut us up for a while.

Another socialist nightmare about to start. I'm still living the last few. Will it never end.
