Dean, I'll do you one better...

I'm personally VERY opposed to the congress allowing the US market to be
flooded with a bunch of H-1 Visa toting jr programmer wannabe's from the
3rd world that will never go home after the Y2K problem is cleared up!

Frankly the spirit of the statue of liberty was great when it was first
plopped in the harbor, but  we're kinda getting short on space over here
and frankly I think it's damn time that people started facing their
problems and not running away to the USofA instead of cleaning up their
own damn mess!  Further I've had enough of being challenged on the highway
and elsewhere by people right off the plane/boat that think they've
arrived and can now raise the kind of havoc here that they couldn't back
home....frankly, I think it's going to get alot worse before it gets any
better....
