For a non-EU citizen to immigrate legally into an EU country there are just as many hoops to jump through as there are in the US. Now, what Merkel has done is not the norm, and she's under fire from everyone, really, about it. She has said that they will start deporting those whose asylum applications are rejected, because it should be noted that all of these refugees still have to apply for asylum.

Yes I saw that report. She did that due to the backlash from the German people and groups like PEGIDA. If you are an EU member you can move anywhere with the EU. So Romanian people can go to Briton then get a minimum wage job then claim benefits for their family back in Romania.
In terms of the refugees ..... They need an EU travel paper. But that is another story. The issue with borders and EU members has been a tense topic before their refugees arrived. It's just been put on steroids now, which has fueled the anti immigrants groups to work together.
