Primary source would be taxes from the charter city citizens. I do not believe that the people moving in would be completely helpless.

Then the possible remainning part of the funding, well, at the moment quite a few European countries are borrowing money with negative interest rates. So I assume they can borrow quite a pile of money before the interedt rates become unbearable. And to be clear, this is in my mind one of the most important if not the most important thing EU should be investing money for its own sake. And EU does not need to give the money to charter cities, mo ey can be loaned as well.

Are you aware that the whole Brexit campaign revolved around the fact that giving money away to people abroad clashes with voters?

This x1000. The EU started to crack during the Greece financial crisis, way before the refugee crisis, since the Northern EU states didn't want to give any more money to the economically failing Southern EU states.

If European taxpayers don't want their taxes going to other EU countries then that should tell you something about their desire to aid people outside the EU.

Charity starts at home.

So, when the 3 million plus Syrians are starting to walk into EU from Turkey, are these people not willing to aid others going to volunteer to stand in the front line and tell them that they are not welcome? How are you going to solve that? 3 million people is quite a damn lot even if you have a couple of machine guns to try to help you in your negotiations.

Then I move to a country with a more strict immigration policy(Canada, Australia, New Zealand). The reason why those countries are so successful is that they are very selective with who they let in.

If you want to pay taxes to house, feed, educate and care for 3 million extra people, fine by me, just don't make me pay for your charity. In fact, why don't you already take some on your house?

I work hard and burn myself out to pay for my children, and mine alone, not for others'.

Loaning and investing is differwnt from giving. In my original post I tried to be clear that there are problems in this model. Unfortunately it looks to me like we need to solve them whether we like or not, so might be better to start solving them. Brexit did show that it is important how you sell things. And I am not a salesman...
