That is not just Hollywood. It is the whole coastal liberal arts
establishment. They hate the working class until they actually need
something done, then they ridicule them and try to scam them out of a
fair price for their work.

I only know this from what you write. You have good things to say
about union organizers and occasionally you will say something good
about a union member but other than that everyone is just an ignorant
redneck to you.

I rarely mention union organizers and I have frequently mentioned
unionized workers.

Mike Rowe is a fantastic advocate for skilled labor.

In my own state, there's a huge shortage of skilled labor like
welders, plumbers, electricians, etc.

The problem is that the East and West Coast Elite's have made
succeeded in getting people to think that no going to a 4-year college
is an awful thing, and instruction in the Trades is de-emphasized (if it
even exists) at the high school/middle school level in most districts.

The consequence is that, as Mike Rowe stated, kids think of these jobs
as unworthy or beneath them. The fact that many people in the trades
make far more money than many college graduates is never disclosed to
these kids. If you're a good welder, you going to make 6 figures easy,
for example.

After Katrina, I went to Slidell with Habitat for humanity. One of the
people on the trip had been the head of the industrial arts association of
California school teachers. He was in charge when the community college
and state college people wanted to drop the industrial arts in HS. And if
the kids needed training to go the college. He told them they were
idiots, but they got their way. 5 years or so later they admitted they
were idiots. 20% of the kids should go to university. 40% have the
brains, but only half have the gumption. Now, we have a lack of actual
workers.

The plumbers around here are charging $125/hr or more. If two guys show up, that goes to $250/hr
even though one of them is the 'fetch it' guy.

Ridiculous.
