Well I was really looking for the "how" they go about this. Do they send someone to Asia and then go through the immigration process? Do the asians apply from overseas and than get recruited? Can you explain how the process works?
 
Quote from 1flyfisher:

So many jobs get handed out to foreigners. Have you been to a casino lately. Vast majority are Asians and Filipinos the casinos import. The casinos bring them in and pay them a bit over minimum wage to be Black jack Dealers, Roulette wheel or to work table games, money changers, slot attendants all sorts of jobs etc. Tons of Foreign Asians and Filipinos working at the casinos in NV.

Also the ski resorts around tahoe bring in all sorts of young kids from South America to work the lift lines for a season snow boarding pass.

Here's something that will erk you.
Friends in a condo have this piece of shit 4 foot tall 3 foot wide troll woman from El Salvaldor living above them. She has been here for years working as a maid at the casinos. Now she has a GREAT JOB at barnes And Noble warehouse (I think they pay $17 or so to start). We don't think she is illegal but word is MANY illegals do work there. We think she has a work visa or something. She has been here for years and STILL can't speak a word of english. Do you know why? Because she can give a shit about learning it or america. She has a husband back home and 4 kids back there. She flies back home every so often to fuck her husband get pregnant then she comes back to have the kid here in the U.S. so they get AMerican citizenship. She keeps the kid for a few months and then sends the kid back to her husband/family in El Salvador. My friends have seen her knocked up and with a new born baby twice in the last two years or so. She just had another baby a few months ago, But right now there is no baby at the condo. Not any more SHe sent it back already. She is Working a job a ton of americans would kill to have for a great wage and benefits. This is not uncommon for all sorts of major corporations to hire illegals or foreigners with work visas. We have an Amazon warehouse and a Walmart distribution center....all of em have tons of non americans who can't speak a word of english working there.

About 80% of the needed qualification of a good hire for these jobs is if the employee will show up for work.

Your comment says more about Americans than it does about immigrants.

It ain't racist, it's just incredibly blunt :p

Fact is, immigration has caused a lot of problems, not because of immigration however, but because of the expansion of government and the benefits it provides for no work.
 
Quote from Misthos:

You don't get it - there are no jobs.

Let me be a little more precise. There are millions of unemployed people - from the middle class - that cannot find a new job that will allow them to retain their middle class status. This is the dilemma. It is a giant intellectual and emotional leap to understand that the possibility to maintain one's middle class "membership" may be over.

I don't blame them. That is a huge devastating reality to accept. In the US, we live by the "generational success" narrative. That is, educate yourself, work hard, play by the rules, and guarantee you will live better than your parents did.

My opinion is that this paradigm died in the 1970s. It was credit growth - public and private - that helped us retain an illusory semblance of that paradigm. But all credit booms go bust eventually, and reality hits us all - including you and me.

How will it affect you and me? Well, those unemployed and bankrupt people helped grow the economy once. Their debts and consumption were yours and my savings. Remove their debts and consumption, and you and I will have to work harder to be able to save and maybe even earn a living. It's all connected.

So spare me your sanctimonious claptrap. You and I are next. Why do you think the government resorted to such historic and gargantuan stimulus measures? It wasn't just to save them - but to save you and me.

I'll say it again - it's all interconnected and we will all feel the pain. The only difference is that some feel it sooner and more harsher than others.

Well, I was on unemployment for a total of 3 weeks before I found some contract to buffer my income until my lease expires. But I'm making about 2/3 what I used to; however, the number of hours I'm working are halved. So, in a way, I feel like I've won because I didn't like the 40 hour grind.

But, in my case, $385+$25 (federal supplement) just doesn't cut it. I doubt these people really want to be on unemployment. But, at the same time, I think a lot of it has to do with people getting on job listing web sites, and then finding out there's a lot of stuff they just flat out do not want to do.
