I've actually got to agree with Jack here. While immigrants can benefit the economy in some ways, and some bring money with them, a lot of them emmigrate initially to find work. So when they come to other countries, such as the UK and Ireland, they get employment because they work easier than we do because generally they will work for less money, and I don't know about the UK, but over here we've gotten a reputation for being lazy and laid-back about things, whereas Eastern Europeans have a reputation for being proficient and hard-working, so even if we are hard workers, a lot of the time they'll get a job ahead of an Irish person. As such, it is near impossible to actually get a job here these days, and more and more people are being laid off and made redundant each day, and unemployment rates are rocketing.
As a result, we are now one of the most indebted countries in Europe, they're bringing back full fees for colleges, which will mean more drop-outs, and as such, more unemployed Irish people who are not in full-time education, and thus more people on the dole, and higher taxes all round yay, which will lead to more people being made redundant, and we come full circle So basically, we're screwed.
So yeah, like Jack said, I'm not being racist, but in Ireland anyway, immigrants aren't really holding the country together, if anything they're adding to the problem. And the UK is probably in a similar situation.
