Michael,

It's an advantage because they don't have a choice. They know what they want, that is survive, and they do whatever it takes to get there.

We who have been born in a country have so many choices ... sometimes too many. We're constantly being bombarded with choices.

With migrants, it's cut and dry. Survive.

So I stand by my answer: "They knew what they wanted and did what they could to get there."

So what do you think Michael? Warm or cold?
