There is always the need for a foreign menace in order to avoid in-depth search of system fallacies, so I guess that Romanians were now the perfect bad guys.<BR/><BR/>I don't think that the decree is a good solution , as the EU itself said that it infringes upon the right to free circulation of people. Some other way should be found. <BR/><BR/>As for what you say about lodging and job finding, it is true only to an extent.<BR/> It is an Italian problem, I agree, but it gets much more acute for an immigrant. If you think an Italian has difficulties in finding a job and a house, try searching for them as a citizen of one of the three "non-grata" nationalities: Romanian, Albanian or Maroccan. <BR/><BR/>The point is, immigrants and foreigners have all the problems an Italian the same age might have, plus the red tape, the constant need to demonstrate a reason for one's existence and the perpetual suspicion. <BR/>You may see only one foreigner, I see 60 million.anapanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06637821528262891691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2979620421492792334.post-84994388620389638752007-11-11T03:15:00.000-08:002007-11-11T03:15:00.000-08:00Dear Exodus,I agree with you when you say immigran...Dear Exodus,<BR/>I agree with you when you say immigrants "are needed" although only regular immigrants are needed. That's why I find the "immediate expulsion" principle not an idea but a duty. I don't find a reason for waiting in front of people avoiding italian laws after having entered the country ILLEGALLY. Otherwise the risk would be a running away of the irregular immigrants.<BR/>About the partecipation in public life I just think that an immigrant could be ready for partecipation only after a lot of years of day-by-day-regular-legally life in this country. There are already a lot of italian people partecipating in the public life knowing nothing of their native country.<BR/>In the end I really agree with you about the "agenda setting role" of media: few serious journalists and media remain today. <BR/>Moreover it's so curious: you said that integration in Italy for immigrants is only "superficial" 'cause of the difficulties in finding house&job but this would be the main reason, if you ask, for discontent of italian citizens. It's not an immigrants' problem but an italian problem.<BR/><BR/>PS I've added your blog link in the "TU e internet" links section of my blog.NutreLaMentehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16010420739319831996noreply@blogger.com
