In las vegas many casinos hire 100% recent immigrants to be dealers. My friend was very frustrated about her low wages. She moved to Vegas, she went to dealer school, her personality is fantastico, she charms and entertains men like you wouldn't believe. She would've been perfect. At the big casinos now it is 100% recent immigrants in the good dealer jobs, americans need not apply. So, if they get away with that discrimination there, then I'd say the laws are simply not enforced when you discriminate against americans.

Also, Matloff claims that in silicon valley it is common for an asian owned company to hire 100% from the home country. Not just programmers, managers and executives, but secretaries and janitors too, I'm saying 100% even when they have dozens of employees. This is a common pattern in america. Matloff says he found a company that advertises in chinese language newspaper in california when they need people.

Discrimination laws are enforced in a very subjective manner, that's just the way it is.

If a white person even speaks about this, then the republican jerks will tell you that he is a racist, but if a white person behaves in this manner, then he'll have charges against him. That's our country, so forget about enforcing discrimination laws.

Perhaps it's time for Americans to start filing complaints with the Department of Labor, and various other agencies involved with upholding the laws of this country and of our states. Maybe it's time to lobby Congress ourselves concerning this issue. Perhaps it's time to PROTEST in the streets. We need to address this situation, and we need to make our Representatives aware that this neither this issue or us are going to go away.

On my last interview, 3 out of the 5 people that interviewed me were foreign. 2 of them were Chinese, both of which had extremely thick accents, and one of those had an accent so thick that I could barely understand a word that he said. Needless to say, I didn't get the job...
