And as for us Americans, we get to pay for all this b.s.
Oh yeah, and shut the hell up about it.
Thank you for posting these issues.
11/2008 won’t come soon enough for me!
“they are just men/women trying to eek out a living in a very competitive global world market”
That’s understandable.
Now why can’t they just compete from inside Mexico? Why should we let them in to depress wages of American citizens?
“I remember going to Belgium and seeing the French trucks, German trucks, Swiss trucks all going up and down their highways. “
Yep. That’s called the European Union. We don’t have a North American Union (yet). If we do then I would agree that they should be allowed in.
This is the same thing that has happened in so many industries, like the H1-B visas that really depressed the software industry in the U.S. Our gov’t seems determined to make global wages the same for everyone around the whole globe.
