Not fake "capitalism" at work, but cronyism and anti-business measures that cripple the playing field for free market entry by participants that do not have the wherewithal of the pro-big-government corporations like Microsoft and others that benefit from the immigration laws that they themselves write (using their lobbyists) and then loudly complain about. And that Big Labor also colludes in. Who else noticed when changed their tune on the subject? Why? Because they see a big boost of enrollment with more useful gullibles under-educated in the kinds of rights that Americans have expected respect for.

lower wages.
