Have to agree with megaadam - this is a topic that is likely to generate swearwords and high feelings, and is more suitable for the soapbox.

I doubt people have really changed that much in the last 20,000 years - our technology is better but we're still fundamentally the same creature.
It is comforting to think that "times have changed" or "we're more civilised now" though isn't it, even if it's not really true?

On the other hand, there are some amazingly wonderful people in this world too. Don't give up hope.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

There seems to be many arguments against the concept of guest workers and only one in favour - cheap labour to benefit a small minority.

A few companies up here in New York have followed suit, as well. They laid off half their software engineers, and flew in some engineers from India to replace them. I have been told
that it is much, much cheaper to do it that way.
Personally, I think it sad and disgraceful but there is not much anyone can do about it. The price we pay for the way we live.

How are they getting the visas at all? That looks so totally against the regs.

The federal government has been ignoring the law for a long time, but it's accelerating. Do a search for the clandestine worker program being offered to illegal immigrants. Toss in "executive action" to ignore immigration law.

Yeah, but this looked like they had actual visas, which are a pain in the ass to get.
I looked into it a while back to see if I could bring over a friend from Romania to be a nanny so we could stop spending a gazillion bucks on daycare.
But you can't get a visa except for jobs that no one already here can't fill.

If it ever got 20 degrees down here I would have to move to the Sun, I guess. We complain when it gets below 70 degrees.
