"Jobes Americans won't do" would include CEOs of major corporations, bond traders and investment bankers - if they paid only $3.50/hr.

Americans "don't do", or are too lazy to do? Why should they when Americans get paid more from unemployment, welfare, etc.? Cut back on the free money and we'll see Americans picking lettuce again.

Like software development? Is that why they doubled the H1-Bs?

I was thinking about this last night watching History Channel, Modern Marvels about the building of the RR's. They didn't really bring in the Chinese to do the building of the RR's because American's wouldn't do those jobs, they brought them in because it was in the middle of the Civil War and we didn't have the manpower to do the jobs. Once the war was over the building actually went much faster (not the say the Chinese didn't work hard, they did) when the men who had been fighting in the war were available to help build the RR...

I don't think there has ever been jobs American's won't do, we are innovative and hard working people, there is jobs some American's won't do, for next to nothing, when they can stay home and collect more for not working.
