Importing Labor
So about this immigration for labor thing - is it good? Is it bad? It's hard to tell.

The U.S. Senate recently dropped the ball on an immigration reform bill. Businesses liked it though - they could get top notch smart labor at cheaper rates. Wait a second, something about that doesn't sound right.

Cheap smart labor? That just doesn't seem very fair. For one, it's literally stealing from the citizens of this country who have worked long and hard to get the education requirements. To get beaten out by someone with perhaps inequitable education just because they're cheaper is a direct insult - to both candidates.

Some say employers should just raise their pay, if they want to compete for top notch candidates. Sounds like a plan to me. Although, the ease of getting a labor visa is still up for debate.
