Detroit's comeback has an Arabic Accent.

Good article on the recovery of the auto industry and it's hiring of immigrants and minorities.

Hey if you can't drop clean urine for the drug test these jobs are often unavailable. So good story that the man [[and for his family) is able to secure gainful employment, if he has the ability and work ethic.

Not surprising in some ways. I alway considered immigrants a cut above just on the basis that they are sharp enough and adventurous enough to figure out get here. Frequently, as the case of the guy in the picture who holds a computer science degree, they are educated and over-qualified for the work they have to take, possibly due to language barrier.

Don't tell Donald Trump and his pals about this.

Immigrants are afraid of being deported, that's why they're upstanding citizens.

Yes, but I always thought upstanding meant that they have a fine deportment.
