Thank God that is not true in my case. I am short- 5'4", I am foreign-born, I have brown skin and brown eyes and I am also not skinny like some of my co-workers, but I have a great job where I deal with very high profile clients a lot ... face to face; they occasionally take me to lunch and dinner without my boss or other coworkers. Unless it has been behind my back, a client has never disrespected me because of my appearance. And I THINK my salary is commensurate with the market rate. I defy the findings I guess, but then I could be the "exception that confirms the rule." But then yet again, I am very pretty, incredibly well-bred and charming, so why should being "short and dark matter??!!" :lol::whistle::P

You're female and you're "very pretty"... that beats all.

Hey!! Why you put very pretty in quotes...you quoting me or you saying I am not really very pretty!??? :o:o

Post a picture, let the VJ peanut gallery render judgement.

Is this yet another example of why America is so evil?

It kind of makes one wonder why if this place is so f*cked up that fences, border guards, desert, etc. can't keep "em out. Heck, we even throw them out and they come right back.

There must be something to that? Right?

yea peejay, as usual... illegal immigration affects the pay of short brown legal immigrants.. and allows for the taller ones to be payed more..

:wacko:

You miss the point again Pedroh. The O/P was about "victimization" by America. I'm just saying there are quite a lot of willing "victims". If fact, they go to great lengths to be "victims". It seems kind of odd to me that legal or illegal so-called "brown people" would immigrate here to be abused by bad old evil America.

Not unless they were victimized even more where they originally came from.

In that case why not whine and b*tch about the real victimizer. The country where they originally came from!

Now do you get it? :wacko:

"Credibility in immigration policy can be summed up in one sentence: Those who should get in, get in; those who should be kept out, are kept out; and those who should not be here will be required to leave."

"...for the system to be credible, people actually have to be deported at the end of the process."

WASHINGTON - When it comes to immigrants, apparently you can't be too tall or too white.

Well I am not tall , I am white though, and not paid extremely well. But we gave shorter darker immigrants working with us, they are paid as well. Just maybe it is the occupation of choice that is the lowering of wages, not the race or stature?
