Chipotle Mexican Grill has a lot going for it — an upscale burrito concept, a hip and eco-friendly image, expansion plans galore and a 500 percent-plus stock price gain in just over two years.
And then it has something not going its way — a federal crackdown on its immigrant labor force that has so far forced Chipotle to fire hundreds of allegedly illegal workers in the state of Minnesota, perhaps more than half its staff there.

 Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

Wages are the #1 expense for many small businesses. If I could cut my wage expenses in half, resulting in me not having to pay nearly as much in state/fed/insurance/unemployment/disability taxes.... yeah, my profits would be wayyyy up too.

Obama just said that if you become more energy efficient as a business and green that you can use the savings to hire more employees regardless if you actually have any work for those employees to perform, it's for the good of the nation...of course, he also forgot that he told us that under his plan the cost of energy will necessarily skyrocket.. sooooo you might possibly break even if you are lucky...but still hire more employees that you don't need because it's for the good of the nation....aaaaand...him....aaaand.....be energy efficient...like him...and eat healthy and don't smoke aaaaaand....whatever

Good point, it would seem that the Obama Admin is taking immigration prosecution pretty seriously. There was a report out a few weeks ago on this...
While the punditry is throwing mud, the Feds are making progress.
