But, in fact, the domestic performers are the cheaper ones. The employer still chooses the Rolling Stones more often than not, despite a substantially higher cost to employ them over a band that has never been heard of. Cost does not seem to be a consideration. And if not music, the same holds true everywhere. There are all kinds of Americans willing to throw themselves into a job – especially a job at prestigious company like Facebook – for minimum wage, or even an unpaid position (often known as an internship). No problem at all. It is definitely not lack of Americans willing to work for almost nothing to even literally nothing. Those people are in abundance – particularly right now with higher than usual unemployment rates.
