    That's true. I didn't consider the mention of the EU in the title, only the combination of Georgia + Europe.

    € 32,168 isn't THAT much, especially if you have to pay rent in Munich.

    Nobody in their right mind uses words like "Palatschinken", "Paradeiser", "Piefke" or "Schlagobers".

    What else would I call it? Certainly not "Topfen".

    Kansas Is About to Pass the Most Extreme Age Verification Law Yet ( www.404media.co )

    An age verification bill in Kansas that is the most extreme in the country has passed both House and Senate and is on its way to the governor’s desk. The bill will make sites with more than 25 percent adult content liable to heavy fines if they don’t verify that visitors are over the age of 18. It also calls being gay...

    This text has an incredible lack of substance. The typos don’t improve it either.

    because you’re scared of being single

    The issue with elections is that you won’t become single, you’ll just get a new (or old) spouse.

    I share the same experience. Lemmy imitates Reddit, Mastodon imitates Twitter. The concept of Twitter might be more reliant on algorithms than that of Reddit, algorithms that Mastodon mostly lacks. Bluesky is a Twitter alternative designed for federation that has algorithms, and it appears more lively to me. The same might be true for Threads but I won’t test this out.

    How else would you name a law delegating responsibilities for the supervision of the labelling of beef, other than Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz?

    manucode OP ,

    Luckily, the man in this story got his work permit back after public backlash (German news report).

    manucode OP ,

    That’s true. But refugees who have lived and worked long-time in Germany can get the right to reside here permanently, independently from their right to asylum or similar protection. This is to encourage them to actually get a job rather than just rely on government handouts.

    manucode OP ,

    In cases like the Syrian civil war or political prosecution in regimes like Iran, it can easily be more than a decade. If you prohibit anyone from getting any work for that long and force them to sit on their hands (or work illegally without a permit), they will have a hard time getting back into work and probably continue to rely on government handouts. Who wants to employ someone who hasn’t worked any job for a decade (as an adult) after all?

    So you have a choice: Either you allow and encourage refugees to get into the workforce early and accept that they will probably remain here even if they could return after like 5 years. Or you stop them from working for years and accept that many refugees will remain here for decades and rely on government handouts the entire time without ever finding a job.

    manucode OP ,

    If the they end up staying for a long time, that sort of gap in the resume is fairly easy to explain with them not being allowed to work during that time.

    I have a feeling that that’s usually not the way most employers treat applicants. Migrants already have a harder time getting jobs. The government shouldn’t make it even more difficult.

    Yes, I’d be fine with some of them staying for a long time if the situation calls for it and government taking care of them.

    Most refugees not working will just fuel anti refugee sentiments in the population.

    I can see the argument for not allowing refugees to work for maybe the first one or two years. But if they have to stay longer than that, they will probably have to stay long term and the government should prioritise integrating them into society and into the workforce.

    Furthermore, if we want to keep immigration as low as possible, it would make a lot of sense to prioritise training refugees for jobs where there’s a shortage (like many blue-collar jobs here in Germany) rather than relying on hiring professionals from abroad in addition to housing refugees. While there’s the additional training cost and time, these refugees will at least have been trained in German rather than their native language.

    manucode OP ,

    I agree that refugees who only need protection for a short period of time should return home afterwards and only really need shelter here. But other refugees won’t be able to return to their homeland for much longer.

    At some point in time the government has to switch from just sheltering a refugee to helping them integrate into society.

    In my opinion, the government should make this switch rather early, in the interest of facilitating integration over keeping immigration numbers low. I would rather have more immigrants with a higher percentage of them being well integrated than having fewer immigrants but more of them being badly integrated.
