Let’s Help Japan
Apr 9, 2008 Satire
Japan is facing a crisis as its population ages and fewer people are of working age. There are plenty of job openings because there are fewer and fewer people left to take them and it is so bad that Japan is working on producing robots that will fill those jobs. The Japanese hope to fill 3.5 million jobs by the year 2025.
We here in the United States have a problem with ILLEGAL aliens, mostly Mexicans, coming to America and taking jobs. The common mantra is that they take jobs Americans will not do but in reality they are taking jobs that Americans will not do at the wages paid. If the ILLEGALS were not here the market would demand that employers pay higher wages to entice people to do the work.
Why don’t we ship Japan all the help they need? We can send plane loads of Mexicans to Japan where they can get work visas to fill the jobs being vacated by the elderly. This would help us get rid of the ILLEGALS and it will help Japan fill its vacant jobs. It is a win win situation and it has to cost a lot less than building robots. Besides, if there are no workers in Japan, who will fix any robots that break?
I believe that we can help this country and the country of Japan by sending them people who will do the work that the elderly Japanese can’t…
