Paris burning

According to CNN, all the dwellers of the building that caught fire in Paris on Friday, four months after a similar tragedy killed two dozen immigrants, were on the dole. So, on one hand you have unemployed people living off the state, without skills, abandoned to their destiny. On the other hand the State, paying unemployment subsidies to these immigrants forever, keeping them in old an dangerous buildings that become ghettoes and hotbeds of crime.

What sick politician could ever have come up with such an immigration policy, selling it - no doubt - as a humane initiative in the name of solidarity? Is this integration?
