I didn't think anyone deserved a job, they were just lucky enough to have a skill useful to someone with money :)

Basically, country of national origin is a dumbshit reason for not offering someone a job.

If my next door neighbor gets the job, instead of someone in India, there are certain benefits that I will experience.

Short term yes. Long term no.

Short term thinking got us into this splendid situation.

What's wrong with expanding the definition of self to include a larger geographical area?

Money leaves the economy that you have to live with on a daily basis.

Define "Made in the USA". There are a lot of cars and trucks manufactured in the U.S. by foreign owned companies.

Sure am. Fine the shit out of any company who has illegals working for them. Hell, force them out of business and let the government take every cent they have. If it's good enough for pot dealers and producers, it's good enough for those who profit from illegal labor.

Huh. I guess I'm just not someone who categorizes people by where they happened to fall out of a vagina.

The basic problem here is that when everyone decides to be self-sufficient, trade crashes.

Trade has been demonstrated to improve the quality of living for all involved.

Ask a member of the U.A.W if they consider Toyota Tundras "Made in the USA". Irregardless of what the FTC may define, the unions consider those cars and trucks made in the US by foreign automakers to not be made in the US.

You're one in a million, that's for sure :)

Why not extend Social Security benefits to everyone, regardless of vagina placement, as well?

We are the least self-sufficient we've ever been as a nation. I think we have room to increase our self-sufficiency a bit without halting all trade :)
