E.g. in Germany, refugees are forbidden from working and forced to live on social aid in the beginning. How long that beginning stretches heavily depends from case to case and can easily be years or until deportation.
Yep. But these came about in the 90s, as a reaction to Nazis burning refugee housing, to assure voters that foreigners were not “taking German jobs”.
Regardless of your home country though, this area of policy is full of own goals perpetrated on us by xenophobic and populistic politicians.
Right now, Germany is introducing a payment card for refugees. The stated goal is for people to send less money home and for them to not be able to make frilly purchases and thus limiting
“unwanted” migration. The system is a lot more expensive than the previous cash-based system: For reasons, refugees still need to go through personal monthly check-ins with a government office but the the government now also pays a private payment provider in addition. Refugees also never got much money in the first place, they are now barred from many cash-only events/stores like second-hand sales or smaller bakeries. And sending money home actually helps people in poorer countries stay where they are.
Honestly, refugees rarely take jobs of the original population. Rather they fill the blank space.
Hence why I do not necessarily understand the approach where refugees are kept on social assistance. It is very disadvantageous for both sides.
Far better approach would be to make a list of scarce jobs - e.g. those ones where people are missing and accept refugees who have these capabilities. That would be a win win situation for both sides.

The point of these kinds of politics is to temporarily quell irrational fears of the genpop. Solving (or at least not worsening) issues is not a reason for these politics.

Then Germany has stupid refugees policies which only cost them money.
