How-Not-to-Hire-U.S.-Workers Law Firm Fires Back

theodp writes "Congress is now calling for a Dept. of Labor investigation into a Pittsburgh law firm after a video showing its attorneys advising employers how to game the immigration system was posted on YouTube. Cohen & Grigsby, the firm in question, issued a statement insisting their statements were commandeered and misused, but would not allow CBS to view the original video in its entirety. Cohen & Grigsby has also been advising employers since 2002 that they have nothing to fear if they keep employees in the dark about the existence of DOL-required H-1B Public Access Files."

The Fall of the American Empire

[king-manic]

America is now a country of middle managers, having outsourced so much of the actual work to other countries. At some point they will realize how little they need you and cut their ties. You'll notice the massive tumble the dollar has taken in the last 6 years. The corporatiosn are bribing your government to legislate yourselves into insignifigance.

This obssesive focus on short term gains that your culture and stock set up encourages will ultimately be severely detrimental to America. Someone should wise up before you out source, down size, and Quarterly report yourselves into a minor historic foot note.

I've been bitchin' and yellin' about this for years now, usually some asshole tells me something to the effect that I'm delusional, (NOT) I think this bears me out!

The punks in pin-stripes and their parasite friends in Washington should be flogged and burned at the stake for what they've done to the American worker!

Nothing will change, the "news media" will continue to spout propaganda without any fact checking. The idiotic electorate will continue to vote for lying, crooked, self-serving, useless bastards because they seem to be incapable of learning from their past mistakes (Bush).
