The guy on the ladder is an undocumented worker - he's paid daily, in cash, thus avoiding any income taxes, and his employer is avoiding employment taxes. Because he speaks little English, his children require that the (free) public schools to hire additional bi-lingual teachers, and they have to purchase Spanish textbooks. His wife is pregnant, and soon, with a new auto-citizen as part of the family brood, a social outcry would result if the family of illegals were to be deported.

Just outside the edge of the picture are several Americans waiting for the guy to fall off the ladder so that they might get a job that's been sold to the lowest bidder - an illegal bidder.

The house actually belongs to Nancy Pelosi, and if you look closely you'll see that she's offering the guest worker a cool drink with her right hand, and giving the citizens that pay her salary the finger with her left hand.

Just outside the work site, Ted Stevens (from Alaska) is offering all US illegals jobs in Alaska, with plenty of work to be done on his many properties if the public sector can't absorb them all with make work jobs.

Can't tell. Is he going up or down?

He has a folding ladder standing at a 5 degree angle. I am surprised he has made that many steps.

If you look at the left side of the ladder and use the fence holes to figure angle and go straight up you will see he is very safe, the right side is an illusion of no angle, its the photographers position to the ladder.

How did you determine the angle?

And how did you determine this "equal and opposite angle", considering that the photo was shot from behind the ladder and not from the side?

You look at the equal and opposite angle the top of the ladder makes with the wall. I screen captured the photo from the Rosetta Stone.

The picture had to be staged. I don't think he would be able to take another step without flipping the ladder.

The guy is a rookie at OSHA?

Ladder on top of scaffolding?

I'd say he has the ladder backwards.

Naw, you're wrong. Look at the extension of his arms vs the position of his feet. A perfectly nornal body angle for climbing a ladder.
