Immigrant Multi-culturalism

de bene esse: literally, of well-being, morally acceptable but subject to future validation or exception


Angela Merkel has declared Germany's multi-cultural society has "utterly failed".  Listening to my favourite BBC radio program, 'World Have Your Say' with it's usual energized debate on immigrants, their assimilation and the merits of multi-culturalism.  Callers highlighted Germany's multi-cultural world cup football team as evidence of success but I don't know if that is reasonable proof of same.

Assimilation is critical ... I always lamented the failure of people to address their societal issues and ultimately flee to promise lands.  People are starting to resent the migrant onslaught.  Alil xenophobia is good!
