[[Denmark]], which processed 7,000 asylum seekers in 2013, 14,000 in 2014, and 21,000 in 2015, has taken steps to dissuade migrants from showing up. Situated between two of the migrants most popular destinations, Germany and Sweden, Denmark started efforts to stem the flow in 2016. When dozens of migrants began arriving with child brides as low as 14 years old to enjoy Denmark's social welfare benefits, Danes began saying enough was enough. One man had 3 wives and 20 children.
The first step to get the message out was seizing any property over $1400 in value to offset government costs. Then the monthly stipend was cut 45% because of the overwhelming number of people arriving. Citizens who drove migrants accross the country between Germany and Sweden were fined. The government took out ads in Arabic language newspapers apprising visitors of the new [[regulation]]s. Finally, [[pork]] became a mainstay on the menu in public schools.
Slamming the door on migrants seems out of character for a nation noted for empathy toward people unwelcome elsewhere.<ref>For example, when the Nazis imposed a regulation requiring Jews to identify themselves in public by wearing the [[Star of David]], the following day the King appeared in public wearing the Star of David, inspiring multitudes to don the Star and assist hiding Jews by confusing the [[gestapo]].</ref> Danes like the society they've built and inherited, and hard-headed pragmatism causes them to step back from the self-destruction their neighbors are intent on. Denmark maybe next to follow Brexit.
