   FWIW, the MAGAZINE OF FANTASY & SCIENCE FICTION, which had been coming   
   in a manila envelope, now comes naked, with an address label on the

   No immigrant has taken your job.  You were laid off by a capitalist   
   who required cheap labor and took advantage of that immigrant to   
   increase his profits, and nothing makes him happier than to hear   
   you blame the immigrant and not him.  -Mohamad Safa
