Migrant.es: a single solution, the freedom of movement (fr, it, pt)
[machine translation]

National Front of the Socialist Party, everyone agrees that we need to lock the borders 
and control immigration drastically. There are some differences in shape or virulence in 
speeches, but all gather to say that immigration and immigrants-are destabilizing the 
economy. This idea is now widely used to harden even more repressive laws and police 
systems. Yet this is a completely false idea. ---- The argument we hear most is to 
denounce the supposed "cost" of immigration, that is to say social benefits (RSA, housing 
or unemployment benefits) paid to immigrant-es. But what we often forget to remember is
that these same immigrant-es contribute to Social Security, buy consumer goods, pay taxes 
(including VAT, which alone accounts for half of the tax revenue of State). ---- 
Similarly, the immigrant-es contribute for retirement but often receive no pension or 
because they have no account quarters, because they return to their country of origin 
before to assert their rights.

But the most unfair situation remains that of working people without papers who work in 
unimaginable operating conditions, pay social contributions and can not yet benefit from 
the social benefits to which they could aspire.

This is not the immigrant-es that block the accounts of social security, the mass 
unemployment and the continued reduction of employer contributions. If unemployment is 
over 10%, it is a direct consequence of the laws of capitalism, nothing else. And if the 
law of the market continues to lead our lives, there are always ready to excuse patterns 
that high unemployment to raise the pressure on wage earners and blame the immigrant-es. 
Let us not result in discourses that stigmatize immigrants es action to hide the real 
profiteers, true parasites: the sépéculateurs, politicians, capitalists.

Stop hunting undocumented!

Which is expensive, for cons, it is the policy of "controlling migration flows" and 
hunting undocumented conducted mercilessly by the UMP as in the PS: when we know that 
deportation costs at a minimum close of EUR 20,000, it's enough to think about resource 
allocation ... And this is not the deployment of a new security arrangement between France
and the United Kingdom and the shameful construction project of a wall in Calais that 
could lower the rating of indiscriminate war against the undocumented. As for the draft 
laws submitted by the government, they only aggravate the reform of the Code of Entry and 
Residence of Foreigners and Asylum (CESEDA).

Against the myth of the "invasion of immigrants-es"

Second argument: that of the "invasion" of immigrants es. To counter it, just remember 
that the majority of migration flows are the same inside the South and that only a small 
portion going to the West. Prior to 1974, when the borders were open, no invasion took 
place, even though many African countries crossed hardships. As for all laws passed since 
1974, more and more ferocious and inhuman, just seeing their consequences:

they throw into hiding tens of thousands of people;
they create a worker-its mass undocumented, deprived of any right-es, es exploited by the 
bosses of the building or restoration, without medical cover and social ...
To end the myth of the "foreign invasion" to end the regime of fear and exploitation 
created by the anti-migration laws, we defend:

freedom of movement and settlement;
stop arbitrary arrests;
the closure of detention centers;
stop evictions;
the regularization of all undocumented migrants.
