09/05/2007: "Ireland profitting from immigration"

As Europe wrestles with its relatively new status as an immigrant continent, an unlikely leader is emerging: Ireland.

Historically known for its high emigration rates, the island nation has exploded with newcomers from 150 different countries in the past decade – and taken some innovative steps to help its new residents settle in.

Mr. Adebari, who sought asylum after fleeing Nigeria with his wife and two children seven years ago, agrees. "Nonnational workers pay taxes, so the fact that they can have a say on how those taxes are spent locally – on roads, schools, or services – makes them feel more integrated with their community."

[ Soon Ireland will be just like the USA, but smaller. A perfect member of the new world (dis)order. ]

Not so long as there is life in my body.

Tangent: Ironically, the part of the link that says "oshamrock" can be construed as being racist, but, of course, real "hate" only applies to colour, huh?
