A wholly owned subsidiary of redneckin enterprises I’m thinking of opening a widget factory to manufacture good, honest, made in the USA widgets.. Since it’s easier to get government contracts if widgets are made domestically, I’ll approach some relatively poor county or city and offer to bring my widget production plant there….if they give me some incentives and tax breaks. When the incentives and tax breaks are set to expire, I can threaten to take my widget plant to another state unless they are renewed. Then, I’ll contract out the construction of my widget plant to the lowest builder. In order to get the low bid, the contractor will use his registered alien guest workers from Friendly Freddies International House of Workers plus the usual number of under the table illegals to lower his costs.. I know that widget makers in the USA make $15 an hour. When it’s time to hire my widget makers, I’ll trot down to the state employment office and tell them how many widget makers I need and that I’m willing to pay them $9 an hour and no insurance. Very few domestic widget makers that meet my qualifications will be willing to work for $9 an hour with no benefits (they might not now but they will ), so I contact Friendly Freddies International House of Workers and tell him how many widget makers I need and how much I’ll pay. Freddie lines up widget makers in foreign countries, who are trained or can be trained to make my widgets and are willing to spend up to 6 years living in the US working for $9 an hour. All the while dreaming of getting their green card or at least give birth before having to leave. In order to cut my costs even further, I’ll outsource my office labor to Bubba’s Outsourcing Emporium. Motto: You’d be surprised what a Indian will do for a dollar an hour in India. Cool huh? The Republicans business friends get their cheap labor, needed since there is a limit to productivity increases, Democrats get what they perceive as potential new Democrat voters to lead us on to some “Progressive™” utopia and we, the Citizens, get screwed by having to compete with cheap foreign labor in our own country.
