Add unemployment benefits to the list of generous Danish welfare benefits EU residents can qualify for, even though they have only paid into the system for a limited amount of time.

Verner Sand Kirk, the head of AK-Samvirke, an association of unemployment insurance providers, said EU rules guaranteeing residents the right to work in all member states, would make it difficult to do anything. – Jyllands-Posten
