A -very- timely discussion given what is going on with the influx of refugees from the Middle East/Northern Africa into Europe and the continuing influx into the U.S. from Latin America...definitely a clash between rapidly growing and underdeveloped nations and slow growth developed nations. The tensions are increasing and will pose significant questions and implications for many years to come..

As these huge waves of refugees make their way into the U.S., Europe, and beyond, what is the role of private business and public policy? Germany has already announced its willingness to accept hundreds of thousands...an act of charity or of business? Given the low birthrate of Germany, they need an influx of skilled foreign labor to keep their economic wheels turning...whereas in the U.S., there are many low- and semi-skilled citizens, already.

On the other hand, Facebook has been very open about wanting to see a large increase in H1B visas into this country so that they can attract workers with the skills they need...but, at what cost to the American worker?

And, marketing, ever concerned about market growth sees both opportunity and concern under these situations. Whereas the slow growth nations have stable populations, do they have the workforce needed to continue to drive forward? And, whereas the rapidly growing nations have high birthrates (generally speaking), what is their responsibility to the other nations of the world if they cannot support their own populations?
