Yeah, can't allow any of that competition crap. That always leads to bad results.

Sometimes the reputation of foreign workers as working harder spreads. I have seen that happen at a large outfit where we hired a draftsman from some Eastern European country. He was exceptionally good, so they hired 2 more from the same country, and those 2 turned out to be below average.

Same thing happened when I was hired way back in 1963 at a machinery builder outfit as a mechanical engineer. My boss liked my work so much he went out and hired 4 more from my country. What employers forget is that is that all people from any country are not the same.

Here is my speech. Moratorium on all immigration for 2 years with diplomatic exception only. Repeal the 1965 Immigration Act. Build an impenetrable wall on the entire border with Mexico. Deport all illegal aliens whenever they commit any crime or if they become known to government or law-enforcement.

Three years later and suddenly this idea doesn't seem so far-fetched anymore!

The original statement is 10 years. I have it right here on paper because I wrote it down before posting it.
