The impact of the refugee crises on the European community is in fact desastrous. And welfare was a major attractor to refugees in Germany.
The Danes were tougher. Made sure some bad stories were told about them on the social media.
Overwelfared means that people loose their fangs when being overpampered. No need to be overly hard working, no need to give your best. The state is going to take care. Actually, the same thing happens over here.
It does not affect everybody. But it affects far too many people, who will become less and less active. It is like growing couch potatoes.
And these potatoes will not be more satisfied. They will complain more, demand more.
I am glad that my country was trying to find a good balance. At least, it used to. But the same thing strickes here. And what I do not like is the lack of self-responsibility, which shows by making others responsible for ones own misery.

Talking UBI, it is a little risky to judge from oneself and assume that the rest of society would get as much out of UBI as you and I would.
