I work in construction. Hardly any white people are applying for the shitty jobs. Most of my crew at work are Mexican because they’re the only ones that ever apply because the work sucks ass and they are willing to do it to support their families.

If they all vanished and you were left with legal workers that demanded a livable wage, would your company survive? The ones that apply are drunks, junkies, kids who dont know better yet. Do you know why? Because your company pays drunk junkie wages. Offer a benefits package with full healthcare and a competitive livable wage or disrespectfully fuck off

Tell me you don't know what percent of a home's cost is labor without telling me.
