Require companies to hire Americans, period

Q: What is your opinion on the statement, "Require companies to hire more women & minorities"?

A: OPPOSE: How about require "companies to hire Americans PERIOD"? Men, women, minorities of both persuasions! No particular preference but the unemployed must NOT be ignored for the hiring of simple job-changers.
