[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good luck with your roofers, home reno workers, lawn service, tree service, restaurant and fast food workers, home health care workers for the elderly, nursing home workers, produce pickers, seafood processors, meat packing workers, public restroom cleaners, and workers who do every shitty job Americans don’t want to do.

I just changed my roof last year with a local Virginian guy who has been in business for 30 years (born and raised American). My bathroom reno was done by a Ukrainian team who are here legally under U4U, great work, and very affordable European design. I pay my neighbor's high school kid to do my lawn (born and raised American), and my yard is done by my friend's retired father (born and raised American).[b] Why not support local businesses[/b]? Americans are doing those jobs and they are not shitty jobs. Your post if very hateful toward our own workers. [/quote]

All my local contractors have been local Virginians as well, "born and raised American" as you say. But their workers are not. Who did the work on your roof--I mean, who actually did the manual labor? I'm guessing they weren't "born and raised Americans."

Did you ask the Ukrainian for his papers? Otherwise how would you know if he is here legally.

I would love to hire a local kid or friend's retired father to work on my lawn, weed my yard, etc., but these are not the folks doing the work in my zip code. Once in a while a teenager shows up to shovel snow when we have a snowstorm and I immediately hire them to do it and pay them well. But it's not consistent and most teenagers in my neighborhood do not do these types of jobs. Where do you live, exactly, that there are so many "locals" available to do your lawn, etc.?[/quote]
