Labor Migration

And The Progressive Communist 

Good labor migration article (hat tip: frequent poster dlw)

Here's a quote for you:

The leader of the Communist Party, Petro Simonenko, for example, not long ago attacked the "orange camp" that came to power with President Viktor Yushchenko for portraying labor migrants as active people and investors. Such people are damaging Ukrainian society, he claimed, accusing them of spreading alcoholism, drug abuse, and AIDS. In encouraging women migrants in particular, the government was undermining their true role - to bear and raise healthy children.

How ironic, considering how much effort the Communists once put into trying to be pro women's liberation.
