But those phony docs are merely the tickets to get a low paying job that we know native born Americans are loathe to pursue. Loathe to do? Oh goodness! We have unemployment at 10% and you're saying nobody wants these low paying jobs? Might be because we have made unemployment benefits too generous. Another reason is they will work for a wage that won't support Americans to the point they can afford medical benefits and retirement accounts and local taxes. So instead of the worker or employer paying these things, you as a tax payer get to pay them. The government pays for their medical insurance, the education of their children all so we get lettuce at $1.00 a head instead of $1.10 a head. .........The solution of course is to force the wages to come up to a point Americans will take the jobs. That is what capitalism is all about.
