Reply #8: Okay, here's one for you. What if employers had to hire you [View All]

for a job even if you are overqualified. I have known many people who lost their good paying, professional jobs and who were willing to take lower paying jobs but the employers wouldn't hire them because they were overqualified.

There was actually a story twenty years ago about a TV newswoman for the local FOX station, channel 11 who was laid off from her job and became homeless because no one would hire her even as a secretary because they said she was overqualified.

So, it seems we have to do a lot of work on our end here before we start blaming the immigrants for what are really problems in our system.
