I am talking about cleaning out the work force.

I believe they are quietly doing exactly that. Not fast enough, IMHO!

Reports from some FReepers in Florida and other parts, indicate a noticable reduction of foreign faces in some stores and businesses.

California, is the exception, not the norm.

Yes, I think you may be right....however, I am currently in Minnesota and I see another thing happening here that I think is just as shocking. I have NEVER seen so many Somali people in my life! The University Hospital and other places are full of them. The Cab companies have been taken over, it seems. And my uncle had his heart attack the very day that a city inspector came to tell him that he needed to cut his grass (which, btw, had just been cut!). The gentleman could barely speak english, was difficult to understand, and outraged my uncle when he told him how his grass should be cut! Of course, this is Minneapolis...liberals rule and stupidity is prospering. What I do not understand about this is the fact that becoming a city inspector is not something that is necessarily easy to do. So how can someone who doesn't hardly know the language get that job????? But that's another subject. :)
