I know that I got emotional. But to be honest, I think emotions are sometimes important to make the point clear.
> The fear for a lot is that excess immigration and taking on refugees will break the social welfare you just mentioned.
I understand that fear. As I was responding to another person in this thread, I know people ruthlessly exploiting western social programs to the extend that they manage to live exclusively, or almost exclusively on welfare. My mother has a neighbor who was laughing that she is silly to work, because she has Belgian fiancée and she should live off social support.
But that is not the type of argument that was made originally.
The original comment was by an entitled software developer, who hides behind equality.
> Most Europeans can’t afford a house anymore.
Many people say it, but I never seen a good analysis of that issue. If you have data to back that up I would be very happy to see it. That's something that I wanted to research for some time. My biggest question is whether it was really so easy before, or is it just still difficult. Is the issue related to immigration? Or is it due to regulations? Or something else?
