“As President Bush himself said last March (2007), the United States needs a temporary guest-worker program that would “match willing foreign workers with willing American employers traitors to fill jobs that Americans will not do.”

Fixed it.

I guess paying market wages is a foreign concept to you.

“Farmers won’t sell it to us for less than $12/lb. So, if you want bacon, shut up and pay more.”

This is how a free market works. At $12.00/pd a lot of pigs are going top be farmed!!! Supply is not STATIC.

Can’t fix a direct quote. Traitors to their own country are the ones who refuse to work. Any foreign worker willing to come here legally and work is welcome in my country.

I guess a falsely inflated market is a foreign concept to you on a conservative website.

Your insistence otherwise grows very, very boring.

When it comes to their employees it's capitalism for me but not for thee. The free market doesn't apply to salaries.

So, we farm more workers? So, now you're FOR H1B visas? Sounds good. Bring 'em in for tech jobs.

That's your standard "One Trick Pony" to EVERY comment on labor shortages.

I guess trying to find willing workers in a government-distorted market is a foreign concept to you.
