Re: Question about scope of ADI DNS replication

Ummm...cheap labor?

That'd be disappointing if its nothing more than the mighty dollar
trumping all. In reality all that happens is that the employers get to
pay cash below the minimum wage, and the rest of society [paid up
members] gets to share the brden for eductaion/health/police etc. So,
how many of the same employers make political contributions? Tax deductible?

What the IRS in UK do with cash payments/expenses [those without paper
invoices or otherwise unevidenced]is gross up the sales figure in the
financial statements resulting in higher corporation tax. They also
audit the personnel for non-existent/duplicate names etc, and they have
a delightful penalty system which they just love to apply. You are
guilty unless you can prove yourself innocent, the burden of proof is on
the tax payer...

In the US it is pretty much ignored, if not encouraged. Here's some light
reading:

Nice, huh?

Plus, whatever extra they MIGHT get charged is gonna be way overbalanced
by the performance on the next quarter's reports. Corporations and those
that lead them are motivated quarter to quarter. I've heard it estimated
that up to one-third of construction workers in this country right now are
illegals. Companies that don't hire them can't be competitive. The meat
packing industry here has been gutted from a highly-paid unionised
industry to a depressed entry-level job. Walk into any meat packing plant
in the US and the only language you will be likely to hear is Spanish.

I can remember picking fruits and veggies in the summer for school money.
(Yeah, I'm that old) It was a great way to make some fast bucks. Now, a
kid can't earn enough to make it worthwhile, and without migrant pickers,
the farmers don't get their crops off.
