When we import cheap labor, we are artificially lowering wages.

Don't you know the US chamber of commerce language game? When laws are ignored, the borders are opened and the labor markets are flooded with cheap labor and H1bs. That is the free market. But when a slight labor shortage result in wages firming up a little, that is called inflation and socialism.

I began to suspect the game was rigged when Greenspan began increasing interest rates to cool off the economy 'cause competition for employees was forcing employers to offer higher pay and that could result in inflation.
