No, that's what trade school is for.

No, that doesn't follow.
The handout to the employee enables the corporation to employ workers at a lower rate, and without it they could not -- they would be forced to pay more because their workers would die at the rates they paid them.
The hypothetical handout to the corporation might get it to pay more, but not only would it not be required to, it could have paid that extra money without the handout.

Thank you. You are quite correct.
We do jail people driving way over the speed limit. Google it. People get points on their licenses and have them suspended or revoked for repeat offenses.
They have a "Social Wall" -- http://w3.efi.com/about-efi/so...
It's the magic of twitter.
There's only one mention of it on that page.
You are incorrect.
The workers they brought over were not allowed to work in the US. If they had been on H1Bs, they would have to have been paid competitive rates for skilled workers (you can't bring over H1Bs unless they have skills you can't find enough of in the US) so they must be worth $20 an hour at least. If the workers had had real work visas they could have gotten low skill jobs which paid a bit more than minimum wage and would have gotten overtime, would have had some rights, could have negotiated with their employers, gotten raises, changed companies, etc. Certainly they needn't have worked for EFI and gotten minimum wage and no overtime.
So this company didn't save $40,000. They saved more than $80,000. And the government looked right at them and yet still somehow managed to look the other way.
So your points are logically correct, but they save more like 40 cents on the dollar even if they're caught 100% of the time.
Yes, jailing EFI's board of directors would be a start. They are responsible for the company and ultimately, if you can't figure out who really broke the law here, they're responsible. They are also the most likely to affect change, once they get out of prison.
We need to do both.
"Quisat Custodies ipsos custodes" is a fragment of s rant by Juvenal and what he means is that your wife will be such a slut that she'll bribe the people you pay to watch her so she can screw everything that moves. Possibly including the watchment themselves. He's saying you can't trust women. It's not a comment on how to run a government.
It's still appropriate, but you should know where your quotes come from.
You are misunderstanding the substitution rule. 'Who' for subject/'whom' for object.
So your statement should read,
"who gives a fuckm?"
Let me add just a bit to your comment on Spanish. Spanish is the single easiest commonly used, spoken language an American can learn. It has a TINY vocabulary (you can claim fluency knowling well less than 10,000 words). There are native speakers all around you who love talking to English speakers in Spanish (not only is it hilarious, the English speakers are buying things and helping them makes them repeat customers). It's actually USEFUL, and you can start putting it to good use right away in almost any state. Try that with German! And then there's what you said.
ASL is also dead-easy, but it's not spoken, per se, not really written, and only useful in deaf schools. That said, you lean ASL and you can pick up other SLs accross the globe faster than anyone can pick up a new spoken language, and there's deaf folk in every country.
If you learn a second lanuage, a third is much easier. Yes, learning Spanish helps you learn Korean.
[Yes, Japanese would help a lot more, but it's still helpful.]
Then you wasted your years in college.
