Yeah, but I also think that a lot of people are ratehr naive and think that the grass is always greener, the economic benefits will outweigh any negative things etc. I think a lot of economic migrants fail to realise that the cost of living in Germany (or Australia or any other western country) is so high that they will be second class citizen for economic reasons. Most of the people who experience problems with racism or prejudice are doubly disadvantaged in that they are uneducated, have low paying job with little respect, don't speak the language of the country and are therefore forced to live in certain areas and under conditions that most Germans would be appalled by. This naturally creates resentment among the teenage children of migrants. In the meantime, native Germans (or Australians) think that the immigrants are stealing all the jobs and taking money from the government.Unless you are well-educated and can therefore get a well-paying job, you are going to be marginalized by society. This is true if you are native or an immigrant. Immigrants just have a heap more problems which interact with this to create racism and resentment.
