Are you saying the USA cannot do anything... we are too poor... and the undocumented workers are causing us to NOT be able to help with the Syrian refugees? Is that what you are saying???
No...I Am Not saying the U.S. is too poor to help...let me clarify my position for you...since you seem to be So "Selective".
First, I don't trust the Muslims. Any populace who follows the teachings of the Quran (Koran) explicitly...with its numerous references to killing all "Infidels", is Not to be trusted, and This Infidel would certainly not be so Stupid as to welcome such people into my presence. Here is a summation of the many quotes in the teachings of Islam which reference the elimination of All Non-Believers. I would urge anyone who thinks that bringing these people into the Western nations is a good thing, to read these quotes carefully.

Second, this Middle East refugee crisis, And the flow of illegals into the U.S. is just the beginning of what will become a major problem for the Western nations in coming years. These issues are ALL a symptom of the biggest underlying problem humanity will face...Overpopulation. Numerous studies have come to the conclusion that about 5 billion people is the maximum population that this planet can sustain...and allow for a decent standard of living. We are already well over 7 billion, with 9 billion expected by mid century, and perhaps as many as 12 billion by the end of this century. Given that automation and robotics are already taking over many once good paying jobs, and many parts of the world cannot supply sufficient food for existing populations...adding billions more to the planet will Certainly result in a major problem. Even the wealthy nations will face such problems, as there will be fewer opportunities for people to carve out a decent existence for themselves. No amount of government "assistance" is going to be able to withstand the demands placed upon it, when these numbers are reached. Only if those still lucky enough to have a good job are taxed for 50%, or more, of their income to support those who are unemployed, will government aid be sustainable....and you can guess how many people will be willing to give up half of their incomes to support such aid.
Humanity is headed for a Brick Wall, as a result of this unchecked population growth...and I firmly believe the crisis will erupt in the latter half of this century. Humanity is going to face One More War...and it will Not be so much Nation vs. Nation....but rather the Haves against the Have Not's. It will be more a "developed" world vs. the "undeveloped"...and will even include places like our wealthier suburbs vs. the inner city ghetto's. The Bible refers to it as Armageddon, but the writers of those verses could not foresee the specific conditions in today's world that would trigger the Event....but their basic premise is quickly coming to fruition.
So, Yes...it is certainly a tragedy to see things like this Syrian mess, and the horrible living conditions that pervade so many poorer areas...but many of the problems these people face are largely a result of their own bad decisions, and their inability to adhere to the basic laws of Supply and Demand. It is wishful thinking that we can resolve such issues by continually "Giving".
The 22nd Century is going to see a Dawn of a new direction for humanity. If the Have Not's prevail, humans will be living much as they did in the Dark Ages. If the Haves prevail, the world will begin to come together as One Nation, under a common government, and language, and Humans will reach for the stars.
