Need a job?

This morning I heard about a great new website on the public radio program The Takeaway. Here's a bit of an audio transcript:

It’s perhaps the most common complaint levied against illegal immigrants – they are stealing American jobs and bringing down the economy. Now, the United Farm Workers of America is teaming up with "The Colbert Report" to offer farm worker jobs to any American who wants to take them. The organization is encouraging any unemployed Americans, Washington pundits and anti-immigrant activists to sign up for the Take Our Jobs campaign. They say that if you’re okay with long days under the hot sun, small paychecks, no overtime or workers compensation, they will happily train and set up Americans with farm jobs.

You can listen to the story here, and here's a link to the takeourjobs.org web site, which is sponsored by the United Farm Workers.
