Cybracero: Wave of the future. No longer will immigrants have to cross borders to do manual labor thanks to this visionary and exciting technology. Telerobotics mean that manual labor from 3rd world countries can now do their work from home! Check out the video and technology pages for examples of how this revolutionary idea will change the world!

cell divide. I can see why you're upset. Everyone knows it's better for poor people from 3rd world contries to starve to death rather then work.

It's all a plot. On their diagram, the "internet labor" arrow is passing straight over the top of the US and into Canada!
