Many of these liberal states in Europe and the West have very welcoming and lenient immigration policies towards Somalis. As a result, this has created a very unproductive and lazy diaspora that rarely contributes to the greater welfare of society. Most Somalis are comfortable with their menial, low-paying jobs and don't have the motivation to climb the socio-economic ladder.
Of course, there are some rare exceptions among Somalis who have excelled tremendously. But the income and socio-economic trajectories among Somalis in the West and Europe have been stagnant or rarely demonstrate any sign of upward mobility. Did the social assistance and welfare benefits given by many of these liberal states encourage the Somali community not to improve their socio-economic status?
