That high unemployment thing puzzles me a bit. For instance, wherever you go these days you see hand car washes which seem to be all run by eastern european incomers. Some of them barely speak any english but they're trying to make their way and learn. Seems to me if these guys can find a way there ought to be a way for our other vibrant culture-enrichers to do the same.
