Them being allowed to stay is not my point. My point is that IF they are in the country they will do something. If you do not allow them to work, they will do other things.

Either have proper borders around Europe, push them out instantly etc. or allow them to work. But don't complain about them dealing drugs. It is not the underlying problem here, just a logical consequence.

Side note: Just legalizing marihuana would also work.

No it doesn't. I am from NL, we have legalized the (selling to) consumer part for decades, so they'll do other stuff.

I agree it is a difficult political problem ( which we created ourselves ), but just as other 'simple' solutions are not feasible, simply allowing them to work is equally infeasible.

Unfortunately, once they are here, we will have a very hard time to push them out again. They will destroy their passports, lie about there identy, their countries of origin won't take them back etc.

If we do not want them, closed Southern and Eastern EU borders or rather closed North African borders are our only courses of action. We can try to work with North Africa and Turkey to handle asylum processes over there. Of course this does brings some moral problems with it and will be opposed by the left. Children drowning is the ultimate bad publicity for your political stance. It comes down to what we are willing or feel obliqued to take responsibility for.

People, who are already here will stay anyway. That ship has sailed, we should start integrating asap.

Not before the gap has been closed, otherwise you will only attract more.
