Meh. They still have enough money to waste on superficial bullshit like suits and watches, so it must not be that big of an issue.

They are disproportionately receiving welfare, accounting for nearly two thirds

They also make up the majority of the unemployed

And don’t get me started on crime stats!
They are so bad it’s virtually a hate crime to talk about them in that context.

I am one of “them” and have been working and paying my taxes just fine. Your articles seem to refer to this “migration background”, which sounds like a convenient way to lie with statistics. It seems to also account for people who were born in Germany and had parents from abroad.
From the experience of my peers who are also migrants, they struggle to get jobs due to companies setting unrealistic german language standards, often on purpose, to avoid actually hiring them. The xenophobia is silent, but it is there.
Scapegoating your countries problems on immigrants while it relies on them to function is a stupid idea.
