Maybe it's me, but the suggestion that someone is getting short changed because they're different, and that it's easier to justify short changing someone because they're different, implies that the problem is their difference, not the short-changing.
- msellout 14y agoAre you suggesting we blame the victim?
- jt2190 14y agoRereading the post you're responding to, out of context, I can see how you might get that impression. In fact, I was trying -- too subtly, it seems -- to point out that the ancestor post was making it seem that foreigners themselves are to blame for employers "cutting salaries, raises, and benefits," rather than the broken U.S. worker visa system. (I don't actually think that's what he actually believes, which is why I was trying to prod him into rephrasing, instead of downvoting him. I find people are too quick to downvote, don't you?)
