"Many of you FReepers on this very thread complain that immigrants (not just the illegal ones) drive down our wages and take our jobs but then you simultaneously bitch when business OWNERS take their capital and move it into another country, creating jobs there."

And many of you on the other side, complain about subsidies to keep jobs here, and we have no right to a job, yet you don't see the inconsistancy. Taxpayers subsidizing your cheap labor, and illegals have no right to a job.

Just so that you know and so that we're clear, I'm not one of the ones who advocate for illegal immigration. But I am a so-called free trade advocate. Many of the people posting on this very thread are so-called "fair" trade advocates...what-ever-the-hell "fair" trade is supposed to mean.
