Whoo-hoo! Let's get some Americans working at the jobs illegals take, 
right? Yeah, no doubt Americans will break the down the doors of 
factories like the following. After all, they are paying as much as 
$12/hr. And the working conditions are very "clean". So c'mon all you 
out of work Americans! Move to Minnesota to clean the brains out of 
butchered hogs heads:

"Quality Pork Processors [...] kills and butchers 19,000 hogs a day"

"Quality Pork is [Minnesota's] second biggest employer, with 1,300 
employees. Most work eight-hour shifts along a conveyor belt � a 
disassembly line, basically � carving up a specific part of each 
carcass. Pay for these line jobs starts at about $11 to $12 an hour. 
The work is grueling, but the plant is exceptionally clean and the 
benefits are good, said Richard Morgan, president of the union local. 
Many of the workers are Hispanic immigrants. Quality Pork�s owner does 
not allow reporters to enter the plant."

"A survey of the workers confirmed what the plant�s nurses had 
suspected: those who got sick were employed at or near the �head 
table,� where workers cut the meat off severed hog heads."

"Dr. Ruth Lynfield, the state epidemiologist, toured the plant. She and 
the owner, Kelly Wadding, paid special attention to the head table. Dr. 
Lynfield became transfixed by one procedure in particular, called 
�blowing brains.�

"As each head reached the end of the table, a worker would insert a 
metal hose into the foramen magnum, the opening that the spinal cord 
passes through. High-pressure blasts of compressed air then turned the 
brain into a slurry that squirted out through the same hole in the 
skull, often spraying brain tissue around and splattering the hose 
operator in the process."

"The brains were pooled, poured into 10-pound containers and shipped to 
be sold as food � mostly in China and Korea, where cooks stir-fry them, 
but also in some parts of the American South, where people like them 
scrambled up with eggs.

The person blowing brains was separated from the other workers by a 
plexiglass shield that had enough space under it to allow the heads to 
ride through on a conveyor belt. There was also enough space for brain 
tissue to splatter nearby employees.

�You could see aerosolization of brain tissue,� Dr. Lynfield said.

The workers wore hard hats, gloves, lab coats and safety glasses, but 
many had bare arms, and none had masks or face shields to prevent 
swallowing or inhaling the mist of brain tissue.

Dr. Lynfield asked Mr. Wadding, �Kelly, what do you think is going on?�

The plant owner watched for a while and said, �Let�s stop harvesting 
brains.�

So there you have it. These are good, hi-paying jobs going to brown 
Mexicans when they could be going to increase the size of the white 
American middle class. Imagine the boon to the American economy if every 
potential Rosie the Riveter became a patriotic Betsy the Brain Blower. 
Ha! WHAT recession? Betsy could festoon her new pork-brain-grey SUV with 
red-white-and-blue sticker magnets and little Christian fish symbols! 
Just think of how world hunger could be reduced with a steady supply of 
top-quality, American-produced hog brains feeding the starving masses.

I bet the plant owner would allow the workers to bring some delicious 
hog-brain slurry home for their own families to eat, too! MMMM-mmm! Man, 
that's some good brain slurry.

And the liberals don't think Americans would work the jobs immigrants 
take. Sheesh. What fantasy world are *they* living in?
