CdK, it took me time to find some proofs of my claims about sufficient part of the so-called "asylum seekers" being mere parasites that want to have a European-style
dolce vita without giving anything in return. I have read about it several months ago online, but as it often happens, Google search by keywords brought too many results to find the relevan example for quoting.
So,
here it goes
Quote:A new government - a new immigration policy[/size]
Thursday January 18, the Danish government presented its proposals for a new immigration policy. The intentions behind the proposal is to lower the number of immigrants and refugees that enter Denmark, and to speed up the process of getting them a job. The proposal will be decided upon in the Folketing (the Danish Parliament) in the near future. These are the key points:
Less refugees to Denmark: The Government wants abrogate the term "de facto-refugee" (i.e. someone not recognized as a refugee by international law, yet treated as one based on the circumstances) which annually lets more than 2000 refugees into Denmark. The government wants to work for a common European set of rules for asylum.
Refugees shall not turn into immigrants: As a main rule refugees must return to their home countries. Therefore the government wants to raise the number of years before refugees can get a permanent residence permit from three to seven.
Tighter prosedure for asylum seekers: If they go underground the case will be dropped.
Immigrants who have been refused a residence permit because of serious crime will not receive the usual social benefit, and can be held under observation, i.e. they will have to report themselves to the police or stay in a place for refugees.
Immigrants must be able to support themselves financially. Otherwise they can be expelled.
Stricter demands for refugees who want to bring their family to Denmark: If a spouse wants to bring his or her partner to Denmark both will have to be older than 24 years old (today it's 18) and must be able to prove a common bond to Denmark and Danish society
Stricter control with social benefits to immigrants and refugees.
Recruitment of qualified workers: Possibility of getting a greencard for people with skills that are needed on the labour market.
Integration to the labour market: The government will prepare a new plan in order to get immigrants to join the work force. The social benefits must be lowered so that the incentive to work will become stronger. [/i][/color][/size]
As a main rule immigrants shall not revieve social benefits. Only people who have been in Denmark for seven out of the past eight years will have the right to receive full social benefits.
Better introduction for new immigrants: More initiatives to help immigrants get into the labour market as quickly as possible.
Better integration of children and young people: The government will see to that children speak fluent Danish when they begin primary school.
Stricter rules for getting Danish citizenship: More emphasis on Danish language skills. Crime leading to more than two years of prison will exclude a person from eligability for Danish citizenship. Citizenship can be given after eight or nine years in Denmark. A person who owes money to the Danish State cannot become a citizen.
Pay attention to the paragraph marked by me by color, size, etc. If there was no problem with their willingness to work for money, what for such a legal incentive for working should be introduced? European social security system is so much generous that it is possible to have quie a good life in many of the EU countries without working even an hour in a whole life. Labor moral in many parts of the Third World seriously differs from this dictated by the Protestant ethics...
