June 20, 2007, 8:40am (report abuse)Seems to me that we already have American citizens who are Indentured Servants. That is, those working for Temporary Employment Agencies which save companies money, do nothing for assuring workers of long term employment and/or benefits or unemployment insurance. And, additionally, suffer the "temp" worker to not be able to accept full time work except under the conditions prescribed by the Temporary Agency. Must be money to be made in this field as indicated by the huge increase in Temporary Work Agencies over the past 5 to 10 years--but who is watching or caring about American workers. We are allowing the country to be 'sold" to China and Mexico.
