Iceland and Refugees

I think....

  1. Iceland should limit themselves to 300 to start with (that's 1/1000 citizens).
  2. It might be nice if they picked a region or an ethnic, linguistic or religious minority and tried to take all of that group, to provide some cohesion to their new community.
  3. They should be spread out over Iceland like a finely knit shawl, with a little clusters and lines.
  4. They should have to agree to learn Icelandic.
  5. There should be a matching service, so that farmers took in people interested in learning to farm, and teachers with teachers...
I'm not a professional at any of this.  Just a day dreamer.  We could do the same thing in the US.  If we took 1/1000, we could take 318,900.  The population of Iceland.
