...the migrants who do the sweaty jobs lazy Americans don't want. Right, get rid of these under-educated manual laborers and replace them with foreign, highly-educated foreign tech workers, who will NOT be working in the fields.

Bizarre and stupid. We have our own faltering educational system to blame for this.
