It seems any US corporate service-type company that relies on “cheap” labor, general level of intelligence and morality, and high societal trust, will die.

I know a Vietnamese woman who bought a Waffle House franchise - she brought her brother and his kids over from Vietnam to staff it.

They do well, are busy and have good service - only because she has a locked-in labor source. But its a sign of a bad trend for the USA on many levels.

The Koreans in Richmond, VA did the same thing. Several of the well to do Koreans got together and helped other Koreans buy the little Mom and Pop stores in the “hoods”. They could get those cheap and they had well to do Korean businessmen basically co-signing for them.
They would have three generations working in the store from grandparents down to kids able to put cans on shelves. And no one from the hood gave them any crap either.
