For a European policy of integration of Roma

The situation is more complex than just saying « live and let live ». Nomadic cultures like the Roma, or the Irish traveler, just cause wider social and economic problems. As a tax paying citizen, I would rather my country spend my money on education or our practically non-existent health system, than paying for someones « holiday home » or cleaning up after mess. Anyone who lives near nomadic « halting site », would know the great inconvenience they cause, as well the reduction in land value for near by homes. Also the annoying legal complications that occur when comes to arresting them.

But I do agree what the author said not getting Roma's and Romanians confused. I have no problem with any law abiding Romanian that comes to my country to work, like any other European.
