That is scenario of social conflict.

Largely we are discussing Government immigration policies. They should be more logical and from a fair point of view.

Oo controversial topic. There are so many sub sections of immigration. If you’re an immigrant coming over with a skilled set, paying your taxes, contributing to the growth of the economy, I can totally see why you’d be pissed off about another immigrant working at your local pizza shop or your local cabbie earning cash in hand, not paying a dime in tax, claiming benefits, free healthcare, free education etc. I remember watching a documentary about a lot of Roma Gypsy communities who are found begging on the streets of Europe and the mansions they had built back home with that money. The debate on immigration is not a linear one.



I am a child of the first type. Neither my parents, my relatives nor am I pissed off at the second type. Nor are we any better than the second type. In fact, I empathize with them. They have it much harder than I could ever imagine my life would be. Everyone moving to this country has the right to thrive as long as they don’t break the laws. America was built on the backs of immigrants, some legal and some illegal at the time.

You are a good person based on your posts. You don’t belong in my awful human basket. I’ll take you

Anyway, I think your discussion comes largely to class conflicts. Every one wants to head to places with better opportunities. Some people have the resources in their home countries to be legal migrants, most people don't.


Roma history has of course more layers with how Europeans have treated them over the centuries. And I don't think I am qualified to comment on that.

Nope not just a class conflict. The reason Indians have historically been the highest earners in the West has a lot to do with the cultural emphasis on how bloody important it is to get a good education. Your top global educational institutes are overflowing with Indian and Chinese students. It’s why we generally end up in high earning jobs.

I think you’re describing asylum seekers vs economic migrants and that’s a whole different discussion altogether.

I will discuss this some other day when I am in the zone. I was just here to make fun of this circus of a government in UK 😆



And @NM

On a side note of education, you have to talk to like one of these engineering students who go from India to anywhere outside the top few US colleges, and you will see 'good education'😆

That incorrectly implies they have book smarts at least. 😆
