Really? How are plumbers affected by migrant farm workers?
When they hire helpers.
A tomato picker will also dig trenches for plumbers when the tomato
crop is on the truck. (or any number of other "labor" jobs that might
get a real employee if the illegal labor wasn't there)
Harry would say a union sanctioned apprentice
Hahaha... that's funny! All those plumbers running around in cities
hiring farm workers to dig trenches! No doubt! None at all!
In the construction industry there was a lot of work for illegals when
the journeymen had all the skilled work they could handle. That is not
really true right now and a lot of them went home. The skilled trade
is doing all of the work now, just to have work
Actually I was talking to the VP of the biggest building supply around
here and he says they have called the bottom and see the building
business coming back here. I imagine the labor will start trickling
back if ICE doesn't keep up the pace.
The fact still remains, if the illegal labor is not available they
have to hire "legal" help and they will be paying a better wage.
Feel free to go out to the tomato field and take a job. Give us a
break. You need to wise up and stop blaming farm workers for all your
problems.
