Agree. 99% of the day labor you see at Home Depot, etc. is Latino.

The only Mexicans we see at home depot are there buying materials for
a job they are working on.


We see those also. But our city allows the day labor to congregate there.
And no riots have ensued.

It is just something we do not see here. I am not sure where people
get their day labor but it is not from people hanging out at the BORG.
We just know guys we can call but I think for most folks, they grab
the hefe from their landscape crew and he hooks them up. I know that
is how my neighbors do it.
Once you get a phone number or two and a good reputation with those
guys, if they can't help you, they have a cousin or neighbor who can.
That goes from simple grunt labor to masons, roofers and drywall guys.
The plasterer we got to stucco the inside walls of the new room made
it look like skim coated drywall.


Difference is we are a city of 74000 with similar population densities
around us. So lots of day labor required.
