Lets say that I was a racist and I wanted to open up a restaurant but I hated Mexicans so much that I refused to hire any in my shop. My shop is to have whites, and whites only. Well one of the first things I will learn, as any restaurant owner will tell you, is that Mexicans are extremely productive at such a cheap price. To put it another way, it is hard to get any other group of people to work so hard for such little money. Try hiring a bunch of middle class white kids to wash dishes, clean tables, sweep the floor, cook the food, all for close to the minimum wage, it just isn’t going to happen. So okay, I am a stubborn racist and decide to do it anyway - problem is, to get the same quality of workers I have to now pay them more per hour, say $8, or $10/hour. That is the beauty of the market system, I now have to pay for my racism. Whereas the non-racists are getting the same productivity from their works as I am but at a much lower rate, I have to forego precious profits to support my racist beliefs. Furthermore, in a really competitive market this is enough to put me out of business! Now, factor in the minimum wage and what happens? Well you have just made it easier for me to be racist. Now I may have to pay $8/hour or $10/hour but you know what, so does everyone else….and the Mexicans that used to work there? Sure, some of them keep their job but some would surely be replaced. Think of it this way, if you were an employer and you had to pay an employee $10/hour no matter what, would you rather have one that spoke english or one that didn’t? One with more education or less? One with a criminal record or one without? In other words, the minimum wage is to the benefit of those who have more skills and makes it less costly to discriminate. For more on this, go here, here, here, and here. [...] […] Now lets talk about racism and how the minimum wage helps racists.

That's were the entire RFID debate really took off. First in DOD, and then as e-passports. As for the Illegal Immigration debate? Both groups "Republican and Democrat" want the vote. You know what surprised me though???? That no one in the Latino community "Especially in the Latino Business web sites" picked up on that the person in charge of over seeing RFID in DoD IS A LATINO.

It is these shortcomings, through no fault of their own, that make them the 'Hyundais' of the labor market - you know, supply and demand. Illegal immigrants have the same problem as immigrants but with the added negative of being illegal, placing them at the very bottom of the labor market.
