(snip) There's folks like that, Dwight. Yep, you're
right. There are folks who *will* do those jobs. But
they are in the minority and how ironic. Because it is
more the minority immigrant population that does
those jobs than a lot of US citizens.


I give up, Kim. You've convinced yourself American workers are garbage,
and immigrant workers are God's gift to the working world, and absolutely
nothing is going to change your mind. This fits right into the thinking of
many liberals who feel Americans deserve to be poor for all the bad things
they've done, while those poor, downtrodden, immigrants deserve all the
wealth they can get. And, while we sit here debating, wages for low to
medium income workers continue to decline while profits for big business
continues to grow - neither immigrants or a growing number of working
Americans can get decent paying jobs. At the same time, the factories
moving
overseas are forcing more and more middle-aged and older workers out of
their jobs, adding to the numbers forced into lower paying jobs. And the
situation only gets increasingly hopeless as more and more people begin to
think like you. Where do you think this is all going to end, Kim? Do you
honestly believe big business is going to stop their efforts to drive down
wages at your doorstep - that this is never going to affect you or yours?
Even small businesses are going to feel the crunch as fewer can afford to
buy their products. If you can't see the inevitable outcome to all this,
you're simply not looking or are too shortsighted to see. And, with that,
I
give up as I said before.

And I give up trying to explain to you that I am affected, Dwight. I work
for and have worked for companies that export jobs out of the United
States--and a good number of employees are people who are here on work
Visas. But, Dwight--I don't have the same fatalist point of view that you
do. This is something that, as I've said, been around for years. Nothing's
changed...it's the ebb and flow of the corporate environment.

And, you know what? Screw you for saying that I think American workers are
garbage!!! Screw you!!! I think people who are fatalistic about the
situation and want to make the situation 100% the fault of US Corporations
and immigrants--illegal and not--are the ones who are garbage. Take that a
smoke it, Dwight.
