I never heard of that but maybe someone from the states can explain further. What I know that America is an incredibly rich country and if all the rich people gave 20 dollars a month which is peanuts they would bring not only Americans out of poverty but many others around the world. Its not only Americans anyway. I am not sure why you have all this worry for super Rich people and so much disregard for poorer people. America is the richest country on Earth and have the greatest army. Donald Trump is saying he wants to make America Great again> PLEASE can one explain how we can ALL help to make America Greater then what it is? PLEASE can you explain this kind of greed. I am bewildered. What shall ALL the nations of the world do? Give everything to Trump as he is very mad when other countries progress economically. He wants to see people starving in China, He wants to see Mexico bank rupt, so he can tell his loyal supporters. America is great again and every body else is starving under our feet. Wake up. Can I just have a little break please.......................
You will need to find someone on this forum who makes a living as a landlord to vouch for this. My aunt used to rent out townhouses and now she owns a hotel. She has over 10 years of experiences in this career, and you? I told you a lot of my background to try to avoid misunderstanding from you, now can you tell me a something about you? Otherwise every time I say something, you will be saying things like, now we in Europe....blah blah blah.
Oh, as landlord, if you meet nightmare tenants you can go to the court and sue them, then police will come and drag the bad tenants out of your property, but then it is you who have to pay for all those services, and the poor tenants pay nothing.
If you do a bit of research yourself online, you could find something: Here, Have a read of this...

Never heard of that either. All I know is that locally when you rent a place you make a legal contract. You give a deposit. If you leave before your contract ends you do not get the deposit back. If you do not pay your rent you are out in the street. Maybe someone from France should explain if what you are saying its true because it sounds like madness. We are not exactly in the kind of war were towns are flattened out through air raids so one needs emergency housing. Desperate type of housing as you mention happend after world war11 when whole towns were flattened and left millions of people dead and many millions more injured mentally and physically.
I am wondering about something. It says that you are Maltese on your profile and that you live in Malta. So why you have a French flag? Can you read French? I can find you articles in french, but I won't have time to translate for you.
Have you lived in France? A lot of French people I know know about this and I know A LOT of French people.
I think if Malasyia was at war you would expect some kind of help from your neighbors. Or maybe not? Never had experienced someone through one thing or another have lost all they had not necessarily their fault? What makes you feel so invincible and can never happen to you?. As long as you are human nobody is. Keep that in mind Lady. You have super cold attitude which I don't like. Anyway I am sorry but your reasoning is like you come from some kind of cast system where you see poor people as animals. I am not brought up in that environment. Enough with your anti poor anti needy rhetoric. I come from an inclusive society we are very proud of. And by the way Australians, Canadians and Americans I met have been the most vociferous and brave for a justice and do not really echo your sentiment. Not only for fellow humans but also animals. At least that is my experience.
I do not hate poor people. If you think so, you don't know me at all. I do not see poor people as animals as you put it. If you say that about Malaysia, like most Europeans you have very little knowledge about Asia. With my over ten years of experiences with the Europeans, I can tell you that most Europeans know a lot of things about their own continent, a lot of things about the US and a lot of things about Africa, but very little or none about Asia. In the EU curriculum, it is not compulsory to study anything about Asia. The amount of ignorance I experience as an Asian person in Europe is worth writing a book.
In Malaysia there are plenty of poor people. Malaysia is NOT a first world country. If you want to to succeed in life you have to work very hard for it.
Now, in France if you have a lot of children, and if you are very poor, you can claim a lot of money from the government. Once again, people abuse the robin hood system, this is one of the reasons why the French socialist system is failing among other things. The government is trying to change it, then people protest everywhere. This country does not just need a reform, they need a revolution. This socialist system is just breeding pesticides. This is one part of France I dislike, even though I love many other things French.
Moreover, the Malaysian passport is one of the best passports in the world. If you do a bit of research you will find that Malaysia is NOT a first world country. Most of the best passports of the world are countries of first worlds.

If you compare Malaysia with a lot of countries out there, you will find it is a peaceful country by comparison.
There is also a difference on how poor we are talking about. When the people are extremely poor, there is a high risk they will become criminals.
For example, most spammers are from Nigeria because it is an extremely poor country:
In 2011, the FBI received close to 30,000 reports of advance fee ploys, called "419 scams" after the section of the Nigerian criminal code that outlaws fraud. The agency received over 4,000 complaints of advance fee romance scams in 2012, with victim losses totaling over $55 million.Mar 20, 2014
My British colleagues wanted to drag me to their vacations in India. I told them that there will be harrassments. Now, they are a couple years younger than me, so they took it as a joke and gone to India. I received a complaint message from them recently, saying that the men over there are freaky and scary.
Well, at least they are still in one piece, and unharmed. Worst case scenarios are rape and be killed.
I have done charity work, and still doing one... but the difference is those jobs I did and am doing are done or am doing out of freewill, which is completely different when somebody is stealing from you and harassing you because they think because you are better off than them, you must give to them.
Good luck to them. It does not mean anything. For a country to live well it has to has good trade and reasonably day to day commodities and food. Just by exchanging workers its going to prove anything economic wise. We see it when it happens. But nothing changes so far, which could have.
I think you are very old fashioned, so that is my impression so far... Everything has to be done in your way. If somebody doesn't agree with you, you try to make it look like I am some kind of pathetic person, that I should adopt your method because you think you are better than me. Newsflash, there will be people who don't agree with you. C'est la vie!
Britain never wanted to be part of the EU in the first place. It is very different from the way they do things. Its a very state orientated thing. They prefer freedom of the individual - restriction on the freedom of the individual, political correctness, when you limit speech about what you can say, [barring] something that might offend someone; they are very much orientated to a wide business. They want to look at the rest of the world. They want be trading with the Far East, China. The EU does not suit them; they are tired of this dying economy with a collapsing Euro. Countries like Greece, Spain, and Portugal are going bust. They do not want to be part of this.
The British people have spoken. It is like when somebody want out of the marriage, you try to drag them against their will to stay in the marriage and you are very sarcastic about it, just because you don't agree with their decision. We will see, what will happen. I think in the short term, no doubt there will be disadvantages for the British but in the long term the tables can turn.
