You FROBL's seem to buy into statements like this:
"Our immigration system is indeed based on illegality--on a long-standing and all but deliberate mismatch between the size of our yearly quotas and the actual needs of our labor market, particularly at the lower reaches of the job ladder. This mismatch has often been convenient for employers--it provides a docile, disposable foreign labor force--and it has been the norm in agriculture off and on for nearly a hundred years. But in recent decades, new technologies have spurred demand for low-skilled workers in a wide range of other sectors as well, and the public, quite understandably, is beginning to find the hypocrisy intolerable.
What the author is really saying is that we must depend on slave labor and that it's a long tradition.
The truth is that if businesses weren't over-regulated and over-taxed, they could make a reasonable profit without importing slave labor.
This whole problem is the result of taxing and regulating of businesses so the legislatures will have more tax money for more programs so they can increase the dependency of more people on the benevolent government. When they killed the goose that layed the golden egg, the only option was to entice more illegal immigrants to start the whole process over again.
Socialism marches on unabated and the FROBL's cheer it on!!!
OOH, I'm so scared I have been called a FROBL. I'm cowering in the corner at your lie.(/sarcasm)
