Language requirements absolutely make sense for citizenship. But we shouldn't give high earning professionals a reason to leave and stop paying taxes here. If someone is able to work in English and make a ton of money here, we should absolutely encourage that. Our budget needs more people like that. The security of permanent residency makes it far more likely that they will stay.
I would say no. Just populists out of touch with reality and pandering to xenophobia.
The four parties in the new cabinet led by Petteri Orpo (NCP) unveiled their platform on Friday evening. It is aims to move economic and other policies firmly toward the right.
Adding a language requirement to permanent residency and extending the citizenship residence requirement to eight years seems like a great way to ensure highly paid and highly educated professionals from abroad find somewhere else to live.
What is the effective difference between using intransitive verbs and passive voice?
We just covered transitiivi vs intransitiivi in my Finnish class this week.
Is there much of a difference of meaning between using a transitive verb in passive voice compared to using an intransitive verb? It seems to be mostly the same in my foreigner's mind.
From what I have heard what needs to be addressed is more about working conditions than funding. Tons of nurses are working on short term contracts. If we could actually give them stable jobs that might make a bigger difference than increasing their pay further.
That seems awfully low given how much I put into recycling.
