Immigration Hoo Ha

There are some jobs that Americans won't take and some of that reason has to do with the jobs not paying enough. Some of reason has to do with the fact that the government pays some people to sit around with no job and that pay is higher than what they may make with the jobs that they don't want. Instead of paying people to do nothing, we should have the able-bodied/able-minded people take the jobs that pay less than what they would make, but then subsidize them back to what they would have been making collecting un-employment or social welfare. That would lighten the burden on tax payers, it would push Americans into taking the jobs that they "don't want", and it would still let corporate America have their profits. The only chink in the armor is that some people just really don't want a job at all.
