And not just the super-smart and entrepreneurial immigrants either. Why should companies get away with paying people who pick fruit or flip burgers peanuts, since they're telling us they can't operate without importing workers? Really, it's a win-win. Paying immigrants a living wage would give them more money to send home (helping the economies there) and more to spend in the economy here. Funny how the supposed pro-immigration people don't see that. Most of them have drunk all the Chamber of Commerce koolaid about how businesses NEED low wage slaves guest workers to operate and how dare you suggest they are suppressing wages you xenophobe?!?1!
