alt text: 18 of our 40 employees are located in the Philippines. Insanely competent, great judgement, and $5 per hour. If you run a small business and don't have overseas help you're at a disadvantage

In Canada we import people to work the jobs deemed beneath Canadians.... then they're put up in company housing.

Pretty much modern day slave trade. The money doesn't even stay in the country, a lot of it is remitted back home to their families.

Uhhh... slaves didn't get paid at all.

Allowing people to immigrate into a developed country, make way more money than they would at home, get put up in company housing, and send the majority of the money back to their families seems like a pretty good deal for all parties.
