    This isn't about Americans being entitled to anything more than thier government doing its job and "promoting the general welfare" of AMERICANS.
    How is this not a feeling of entitlement?

    The fact of the matter is someone will do that work for $2/hour. But we should pay this kid $6-8 because he's an American? Is that kid producing 3-4 times the product per hour?

    Sounds a little like Sony whining about their $600 price point for the PS3. Microscum set the bar at $400. No amount of whining is going to convince me to go out and spend MORE money on a PS3.
