Even at a low unemployment rate Utah wages are still well below the national
average. If these employers don't turn to cheap labor immigrants to keep
wages down, perhaps Utahns will benefit, but I won't hold my breath. For
example, several districts that had difficulty finding elementary teachers, with
the help of Gov. Huntsman hired teachers from Mexico, rather than increasing
wages in order to compete with other states and professions. With help like that
Utah should be able to remain a low wage state.

Give me a break. The world isn't what it once was and I think that everyone
needs to start looking at the world in another context.
