LeonardoCornejo: US has good laws to defend the customer. That is why sometimes I feel like moving there, of course through legal means, I don't support the abouse and discrimination toward illegal immigrants but I understand why locals don't like them.
well not one country likes illegal immigrants, not one.
Besides, as an illegal immigrant, consumer protection laws probably don't count for you since you are not a citizen or legal resident.
The opinion on LEGAL immigrants may vary from nation to nation, but illegals are always frowned upon.
I see it often and I can somewhat understand it. (Political refugees being separate category naturally).
Illegal immigrants spend a fortune cross the Mediterranean in huge numbers in boats that barely hold together, somehow under the impression that the moment they set foot on EU soil life will be easy and everything will work out. And then they end up poor and homeless, except this time in Europe. I think that often, they are not necessarily better off then where they came from.
Sometimes I even wonder, had they not put that fortune in the dangerous cross, but invested it in their lives there, could they have been better off?
It's not that I dislike them, i feel fukkin sorry for them. They believed their lives would finally take a turn for the better, only to end up in the same crap, only on the other side of the sea (if their ships don't fall apart before they get there).

Back on topic, I think the EU has similar consumer protection laws.
