RE: DENMARK NEEDS TO INTEGRATE MORE

"You are quite CORRECT, many countries have invited foreigners to boost their economies."

The citizens of the countries haven't asked for any immigrants to ruin their economies. In fact, we haven't even been asked specifically whether or not we want immigration.

"No Govt wants to get rid of the foreigners, because, they pay hefty amounts in TAX. While the locals are too happy with their state benefits and go nowhere attitudes, the Govt sees things differently."

Many citizens wants to get rid off both the government and the foreigners.

"The locals should be happy to see foreigners, because of their hard work and TAX payments, the locals can sit and relax in front of TV all day and still get enough for food and other stuffs from the Govt."

Bad joke.

"The locals need to be shown the benefits of foreigners,"

No thanks, we've already been deceived satisfyingly.

"they bring new skills"

Yes, no doubt - such as what you find here: www.foxnews.com/wires/2009Apr14/0,4670,EUBritainContamination,00.html

Likewise, let's not forget forced marriage, female circumcision, suicide bombing, gang rapes and honour murders...

Do we really need that kind of skills in our (formerly) civilsed countries?

"(I mean Microsoft has based its head office in India, why?)"

Perhaps you should ask them. Probably to save money. I assume unemployment among Americans does not matter much to Microsoft.

I hope and guess that K RICHARD simply tried to be sarcastic. You seldom read such rubbish.

In 1999, immigration to Sweden gave an estimated loss of SEK 267.000 millions (roughly £25.000 millions) of taxpayers' money; according to Lars Jansson (cf. www.svd.se/opinion/brannpunkt/vad-kostar-invandringen_61728.svd). We can guess the loss for 2009 to at least £30.000 millions.

Not to mention the social cost - fear, pain, suffering and mourning among citizens, due to the crime, unemployment and rising costs of living that immigration contributes to. In Oslo in 2009, in 100 % of the 21 reported cases of assault rape, the perpetrators had "non Western immigrant background". I'm inclined to guess that most of (or all) perpetrators (or predators) were Muslims.

Even more immigration, higher unemployment, more crime, higher taxes, more waste of taxpayers' money, larger population and higher rents/accomodity prices are among the things we need the least.

By "we" I mean ordinary Western people living in Western countries. The "merry few" benefitting from immigration are exempt from the designation "ordinary".

Immigration is propably the best (or rather worst) example of a "Ponzi scheme" that has ever been eloberated.

Has there ever been an example of immigration giving (on the whole) positivte effects for a country? I don't know of any! But if any of you who read this can inform me, please let me know.

Can unemployment and/or crime rates possibly get too low?

All Western countries receiving non-Western immigrants should stop such immigration immediately, and then start repatriating non-Western immigrants who has settled in Western countries (without being invited by the "we" described above).

Just wait and see. No Ponzi schemes can last forever. Just ask Bernard Lawrence "Bernie" Madoff.
