According to WALL & MIRROS, the "bracero could be certified formploymentin the United States only if the secretaryof labor existed and made sure that the employmet of braceros would not adversely affect prevailing local wages and working conditions."
This would allow for the braceros that "Mexican contract workes wold be exempt from servicesw n theU.S. militaty, that ty would not be subjecto toracial discrimination wihil in the United States, and thta ntheyn wouold be provided cetain wage levels, working conditions, food, housing, basic living expenses, and travel back to Mexico upon the expiration of their contracts"
SO WHAT HAS CHANGED, FROM THIS TO WHAT IS BEEN WORKED ON NOW????

The fact of the matter is that it has not changed much. History definetly repeating itself. Bush's proposed guest worker program had several provisions that sound irrely the same. Its interesting that supposedly we have come so far and our economy was so great because of the innovation of the American people yet throughout the history of our country we have exploited labor. Begining with the slaves, then Mexican,Chinese, basically most immigrant labor including southern and Eastern Europeans. Work permits- are the legalization of the exploitation of peoples.
