"I think I'll pass. Not because of the restrictions but because I am passionate about guest workers being treated decently. I also hate racism."
I think that is a legitimate complaint and indeed a reason for some people to stay away. You aren't going to change the prevailing attitudes towards races, classes, and nationalities here and if it is disturbing enough to you, you probably won't last but so long without souring. I see that happening quite a bit.
On the other hand, things are not perfect at home but I think most of us feel our laws are on the right track when attempting to treat people fairly.
