I've never been to Europe, and I'm not familiar with the difficulties you're having there.

I will say though, you and I have different ideas about the way multiculturalism and immigration ought to work.

New arrivals have no reason to assimilate, since they get everything they need anyway, and instead they live just like they used to. This forms subcultures and does not foster allegiance to overall society.

This sounds a little creepy TBH. What do you mean "since they get everything they need anyway" ? Should the things they need be measured out according to some kind of social credit?

Why is assimilation and integration so important?
