I have no envy. It just gets on my nerves to be called "privileged," "given more gifts up the ass," and "you don't need child benefit for homeowners" as a high earner. Privileged is Prince Harry from the UK, who was born into a wealthy monarchy, but not someone from a working-class family who has made something of their life. It's about the fact that many people are financed and then they still make stupid remarks. It’s not envy when I see old schoolmates at the daycare picking up their kids in sweatpants and the best gangster slang. Just recently I had a conversation with exactly such an old schoolmate. Unemployed for 3 years, "But it's fine, we get by, while our kids are at daycare (free), I work a bit under the table." Then indeed "envy" arises that the hard-working person here gets fleeced again. Or a buddy of mine who always mocks my working hours and my rare presence at home. I don’t want to be told by exactly these people who "deserves" child benefit for homeowners and who doesn’t.
I’m glad that you have private and professional dealings with "refugees." So you earn your money with them?
But I can reassure you, I also, surprise, have private dealings with refugees... my wife and her family. My wife fled in the mid-90s with a real reason for fleeing (expulsion) and most of her family to Germany. However, the process was different than today. Entry without papers was not possible. Everyone went to a camp that today is called an anchor center and is rejected. There was so little from the state that the relatives who had already moved there before took them in. And today: Everyone is integrated, some have studied, have houses, good jobs, speak German etc. Everyone is grateful to Germany and the people for having escaped misery. And if you talk to them today: without exception, they all criticize the current immigration and the behavior of the majority of the "refugees."
