We bemoan historical systems ( even some modern ) that require you to perform a certain job/duty because the ruling/authority/oppressor power tells you too. I guess in this case the individual 'believes' or has been convinced there are no better opportunities than to make themselves a servant of the state. Millions of people have traversed the globe including jungles, raging oceans, hostile territories, etc. leaving family and everything they know often believing they will most likely die for the simple chance they may reach our shores. It would seem that someone who is already here could take a bit more initiative than to limit their job search to the fast food restaurant across the street. I am simply stating that inferring an individual should abdicate their initiative and free will to the state because they simply are not capable of managing either seems more like bigotry by low expectations.
