Don't think that would work with the millions of illegal aliens in the United States:
So, what would life on Lindholm Island be like for the migrants?
“Rejected asylum seekers who cannot be deported are given accommodations - where they cannot prepare their own meals - food, and an allowance of about $1.20 per day, which is withheld if they fail to cooperate with the authorities.”
The 17-acre island is about two miles from the nearest shore in an inlet of the Baltic Sea. The inhabitants will not be stranded there like the hapless cast from Gilligan’s Island, but they will be required to report to the center daily or face imprisonment. A ferry service will be available to take them to and from the island, but the service will be infrequent.
“We’re going to minimize the number of ferry departures as much as at all possible,” Henriksen said. “We’re going to make it as cumbersome and expensive as possible.”
Finance Minister Kristian Jensen said while they are not actually prisoners and the island is not a prison, placement there will help control the criminal alien population.
