"The employee shortage is so bad ..."



From the song 'Signs' by Five Man Electrical Band

And the sign said
"Long-haired freaky people
Need not apply"

So I tucked my hair up under my hat
And I went in to ask him why

He said, "You look like a fine upstandin' young man
I think you'll do"

So I took off my hat and said, "Imagine that
Huh, me workin' for you"

Drive out immigrants willing to work for subsistence levels and those that are left seek higher income jobs.

Now there is business genius! It seems racism does have a price for those who expound on it.
