// begin scrooge rant
i used to hear the same exact stuff in miami...cuban, venezuelan and other immigrants could do nothing more than become plumbers etc. even if they were doctors, lawyers or architects in their homeland.
first problem is the language barrier...most never master english which limits them. i lived next to an unemployed woman for 6 years who was an architect in venezuela...she simply didn't learn enough english to pass the license in the US. 6 years?
second is that the standards for acquiring a doctor's, lawyer's etc license there is FAR different than our standards here.
on one hand it is totally unfair...on the other, i wouldn't want licenses to be given away to people with substandard skills, or to people i can't communicate with.
