There's nothing wrong with hiring low income immigrants (or were they illegal immigrants?). This is definitely a problem here, but something of which I was completely unaware. Working in the software industry, I know people with repetitive stress injuries, none of whom ever files a workers' comp claim. They just get a new keyboard, those wrist thingies, and go on working.

I believe they were actually legal. One never knows conclusively. The problem was that the word got around that they could claim a back injury and get away with it. And so one by one over half of them did.
