We don't need the government creating an agenda for employment. People will do what they want to do, that is a basic tenet of personal freedom. Thanks for the offer of evolution, but I will go back to being a cro-mag if it means supporting free will over government agendas. What we need is immigration. Lots of it. From all over the world. Only the best and brightest. I would really prefer to see a policy of freedom of movement between the most advanced economies of the globe. Western Europe, US & Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Japan (if the Japanese government would allow it, which I doubt somehow). We should significantly loosen restrictions for professionals from virtually all nations. So here's my scorecard: - Free will. No government agendas for employment, no loss of personal freedom - Open borders between the most advanced democratic economies - Let AIG burn in hell (metaphorically, of course) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:292394 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
